Randy... looks like you got some work done!!!  I like that color a lot and the white trim sets it off nicely.

Thanks Herb. The trim is actually cream colored. I made mistake of calling it yellow and "she who must be obeyed" sternly corrected me.

I kinda like painting.... when I only have to do it every couple of years... it is the kind of job that gives such instant satisfaction.  I'm planning to paint the porch railings soon, before the paint starts to peel.... I power washed and then hand scrubbed the mildew off and calked the cracks..... just waiting on a cool fall Saturday morning to get started.  

My goal over the years has been to get as much pf the paintable surfaces of my houses covered with something that doesn't have to be painted..... all that is left on my house is the porch.. the rental house.....well... that's another story.... but it is much smaller and one of those jobs that can easily be done in a day or two. It has the old asbestos siding shingles on it so painting is the better option now..... removing that stuff would be a real pain with the environmental laws being what they are.... so I paint it every few years on the outside. Single story, small house.... no problem.

The deck looks killer.  That is one big backyard to mow. All that work makes me feel LAZY. I won't be showing the wife this post!

A shade of 'New Gardenia' would have worked well on the trim too.
 
Actually it all looks really nice, I like a big lawned area, it's good for football, bbq's and backyard gigs and once those border plants get established it will all look stellar.
 
Not sure why you replaced all the fencing, I guess the old stuff must have been much worse than it looked from here.  I don't think you'd have done it just for 'fun'...
