Completed yard

The backyard project is wrapping up. Here are the post-project photos. We're still waiting on the edge tile and light for the Sport Court, and the concrete patio needs to be sealed -- nothing major. Well, we also need to do some planting. The dirt behind the Sport Court retaining walls is looking a bit barren. Any ideas?? We're not sure if it isn't better to wait until the Fall at this point.

Note that I posted out of order, and the blog post after this one is more recent. It includes the coffee table / fire pit set that we got.

Marshmallows - Not Just for Family Camp Anymore!

We bought a coffee table / fire pit set last night and the kids had fun roasting marshmallows tonight while we tried it out. While you're looking at the pictures, check to see if you can find what is "missing." (Clue: check back two posts... for the first "step") Oh, in the background of the picture with John and Abbie you can spy the water fountain that we recently installed. While it looks quite simple, it still managed to take this construction-challenged pair a good afternoon to get it up and running.
