Well, the birch tree (that the neighborhood cats killed) is officially gone. We ripped out the rose bushes, and the tree stump, leveled the dirt and painted the wall that needed some love after we pulled out the front bush, (which was also killed by the cats.) We can't wait to start from scratch. It is our blank slate. We still don't know what we want to plant but we are excited at just dreaming about how it could look (and how we can keep the cats away from it...)

The stump...
Our blank slate...
We will keep you posted...
