"Paving" the way for some big things!

 Over the last several months, we have slowly been working on projects in our backyard... making it just how we want it to be.  Just for a frame of reference, here is what it looked like in January:

Trees out and new fences up:
Podocarpus planted, irriagation moved and grass seed fertilized:
Ready for the paver base:
Kit dug out the grass from the square where the paver base would be, while this was delivered to our front driveway:
He laid the gravel first and then pounded that down:
It made it a hard surface:
Then it was time to place the sand layer and start laying the pavers:
We would make an assembly line with the kids and the job came together so much faster than we thought it would!
We finished this part of the project by spreading the "stay" sand in the cracks, like grout, the hosed it all down to let it sit...
I can't tell you how excited I am for what will be coming next.  For now, we are planning how we want to finish the edge and get ready for the next project!
