paver love!

So I am totally in love with our pavers! Here is a sneak peak:




Paver dude will be back on Thursday to finish the job. I can't wait!

Tomorrow, the painting continues...sigh....

Almost there....

The stairs and fence are finally done! Except we need to paint, ugh! I think they look really really good.


The stairs include a special place for my lawn mower (except right now we don't have any grass - haha!)



The beloved fence (with the posts primed - such a bitch to paint)! We got this done for ZuZu and Hampton. They better appreciate it!



Happy to say we now have a fully fenced in front and back for our bb's!


We had planned to start painting Saturday but the paver dudes showed up 3 days early to our surprise. We were really happy they came early. They are quick which I like even better.






They are here again today and Hampton reports they are just about finished leveling the ground. Next step, install the pavers!

half way there i think!

Yay there is some progress on the house. For a while it was looking like this (very depressing):



Here is a first look at our new fence! Some pieces I still have to paint but I'll get to that later.





I love the new fence already. The new wall its standing on looks so nice and clean. yayayay! can't wait until its all done.

There was also some progress on the stairs but all not done yet. Will post pics of that later.

Today we went out to get samples of the pavers we want laid down. We are pretty much settled on what color and pattern we want. Can't wait!
