We did a bit more work on it yesterday. Next weekend we are getting the pavers. Yesterday my sister purchased the lattice and 2 x 4s and paint. My Dad will have a busy week painting and building!
None of us are very good at the whole leveling thing, so we are a bit apprehensive about laying the pavers. I think the four of us combined (DH, me, sis, Dad) have a thimbleful of patience when it comes to completing a project, so we will have to really try hard not to rush things when it comes to making sure we have the dirt compacted and the sand spread correctly. Seems like Nat would be the perfect person to have help work on this project!
Karen, this is great! Thank you so much for taking the time to walk us through this transformation. I'm really looking forward to your next installment. Your sister is very lucky to have such a helpful family!
The azaleas are so nice, I certainly hope they make it!
