5/20 Patio is all built - now we just need the sand filler!

5/19
Look very carefully between the bushes: our newest friend has moved in!
The bricks are all great now, the stairs are faced, and the walls are started!

5/18 It's getting there! There are always a few problems - This brick was installed upside down (smooth side up) - there are 2 actually.. I wrote in blue chalk to let them know to flip it over..

We expect some irregularities in the textured stone - but this is a hole in the patio - hope they replace these soon!

Moved some of our existing plants today to the front yard - hoping that theres more to come yet.

5/15 - Brick laying!

Can you find the 1 smooth brick?

5/14 - Moved the redbud out front!

Poured concrete steps

delivered bricks!

A big storm last night blew apart my shed! Thank goodness it just snaps together.

5/14/2009 Framing for the concrete on the stairs

They put in the drain pipes to run the downspouts away from the patio

And a plastic conduit under the foundation for running electrical out to the outside.

New Project!

5/11 - They start! - We come home to a large area all dug out and a bunch of gravel!



5/12 - The gravel is flattened out!
