Patio Project

Last summer we learned what worked and what didn't for us in the backyard. It's not a huge space, but we do like being out there and having a contained space for kids and Penny. We lacked any privacy and an area to eat, so we decided to put in a brick paver patio adjacent to the garage. At one point Sam felt pretty confident this was project he could do with Jonah and some beers. Now with a crew of five guys and massive amounts of hard labor later, thankfully we didn't go that route.

Here is the before:

Here is the patio in progress and walkway (we added that to the project to make it more seamless):

Super excited for the project to get finished and have all spring/summer/fall to use it!  And then on to the next phase- refinishing our patio furniture!
