so here was our cute little backyard when we bought it:
and here is our backyard as of this morning, one week after move-in:
the deck was built while the sellers were renting back (we are eternally grateful for their willingness to work with us on that, it ended up being more trouble than we expected) and this past tuesday jk enterprises delivered one pallet of pennsylvania fieldstone and one pallet of topsoil.
on friday those piles were gone and we had surrounded our new deck with gardens!
now THAT is a nice place to sip on a mint julep while george darts by with his ball. and i definitely think some relaxation is in order. we are glad that we did the project ourselves despite our angry muscles and heat exhaustion. they don't call it sweat equity for nothing!
