My front yard is embarrassing and I really have no idea what to do. All the plants are dying. One guy said the bushes are infected with spider mites. I want to give the bushes life again.

well I don;t know, I can;t see it

Me too.
Can't see a thing.

Resolution is too low

Need larger photos that don't reduce in size when clicked on, with closeups of the leaves.

They could be Euonymus, which I can't remember how to spell, azaleas, or something else. I just can't say with any certainty.

Possibly Prunus laurocerasus 'Otto Luyken'

Definitely Cherrylaurels - as Iochroma notes.

This is quite the ubiquitous broadleaf evergreen shrub in places as warm as Virginia. I'd cut out the dead wood parts, provide a balanced fertilizer, and then get out of the way. These usually have no trouble at all growing where you garden.

If they don't grow out of the malaise this year, I'd replace the lot of them with something you like better. As you dig them out, note soil conditions so that what you choose matches well with the site they will have to live in.

New pics really help.Thank you.
lochroma was correct Prunus laurocerasus otto luyken.
Have turned your pics.
