Backyard Renovation begins....

Well it's been a couple of weeks and my time has been spent trying to get the backyard fixed up. Here's a few pictures before we got started..... (notice kayak on deck?)

Some young nephews were willing to come and work on it and so here's a few pics...pulling the deck down....

loading up the old rotten boards.....

They were ready and willing to do my bidding...plant this shrub here, shovel this gravel over there , move the riverwash over by the fence and a few hours later.....voila....

Now we wait for Jerry's Concrete to come on July 9th and create our new patio...can hardly wait! Anyway I'm pooped...it's been a long day...after having pizza with the boys (Uncle Frank helped today too) we watched a movie (The Holiday, wasn't bad) and now it's time to go to bed!

Good night!
