We're giving our UGLY backyard a makeover!!

Dumb question.... But, what the heck is a "redneck yard"??

Dumb question.... But, what the heck is a "redneck yard"??

It's not dumb since you're not from the USA. But man ... that is hard to explain! Most people use the term to mean "stupid southern people" which is pretty offensive. When I get called a redneck by fellow rednecks we know that we're not using it to say that we're stupid, but rather southern and proud of it. People who aren't rednecks usually use it offensively ... like if you have a southern drawl you're automatically stupid. I don't know really how to explain it better than that.

Oh, and in this case I'm using it to make fun of my family's yard.

The most redneck part of the yard -- trashy!!

I don't know how to reply to this, I dont want to say, "gosh sarah you have an awful yard, what a dump" cause its not, but lets just say, I'm sure it'll look awsome when you are all done, and I'm glad you're cleaning it up!

You should call ones of those home make-over shows and see if they would do it!

Looking forward to the "before" and "after" shots!

Awww, thanks for the explanation!!
My hubby wouldn't stand this for a second. Once we had our new house built, he couldn't wait to start working on his garden!! Well, he truly has green fingers, and made our garden beautiful! Do something about all the trash, plant lots of flowers and bushes, it is worth it!!
