Our vision

Deck update

Update: we put down plastic and put some beams up. The drills didn't like it (dead batteries) so we had to quit for the day so we could recharge the batteries. We learned it's best to use a corded drill for this type of project.

Wood is in the house!!!!

Guess what, it rained last night. A lot. The fence post holes are filled with water.

We'll see if we can work around this.

We finished filling the deck post holes with dirt (on top of concrete).

Ok....the wood was just delivered and I'm so excited. I took some pictures :)

The decking is going to be composite wood, but the structure will be treated lumber.

More Puppy Pictures

We still don't know which one is ours. So far I love them all :)

More Progress

Ok, so we set the deck posts and dug the fence holes last weekend. We are taking this weekend off and I believe we deserve it. We will start up again next weekend.

We are building a fence and a deck!

So we got tired of our boring old yard and decided to mess it up by building a deck and a fence at the same time!

After two whole days of hard work (we did start with an auger) we finished the deck post holes!

We're having a puppy!

One of these lucky puppies will become a member of our household August 24th. Stay tuned for more pictures!
