Copycat

Yup...I'm bringing it old school with the name calling :)
I know that imitation is suppose to be a form a flattery....but this is just getting... annoying...


We left out landscaping spotlights up after the Holiday's to make our house look bright for the outside...

Last Tuesday a neighoor decides to do the same.

Ok...no big deal. They had spotlight on there house for Christmas, then took them down and seem to put them up "randomly" on Wednesday.

Friday our gardeners come and take out our dead plants (thanks to the week long freeze...ugh). Planted cabbage looking plant (Kale I think?) and pansies in each planter. I liked it...really colorful and hardy plants.

Saturday...drive by above mentioned neighboors house and guess what...YUP....same plants, same configuration....

Ok...now I'm slightly peeved off.

Sunday we drive by and I nearly slam on my breaks.....

They now have topiary on our their porch framing their doorway.....you know....JUST LIKE OURS.

You have got to be kidding me....

At that point I just wanted to to take the rose garden, arbor, and statues and haul them all to their front yard.

Goeff just laughed and said they upped their game (there is a bunch of background I will get into in a later post...then this whole post will REALLY make sense).

But on the bright side...makes little old me feel quite honored that someone wants to copy my "style", specially when that someone is in the design profession.

And so the student is now the teacher.
