Gram has wanted a patio on the back of the house for awhile now and Papa decided this was the year. Here is the before picture:
It was a HUGE project. They thought it took a long time (two months), but I thought it went lickety-split when you consider what a big project it was. They had to order a ton of dirt and sand and stones delivered.
They even had to rent some big machines:
Speaking of big machines, doesn't PD look manly doing all that manly work!
I think it was all worth it though. We went over to christen it the other night and Gram was really excited. They bought a fire pit and we made smores:
Here are the after pictures:
Doesn't it look professional? The colors and design are just perfect for the house. I love it that PD inherited all these great do-it-yourself skills from his dad. I will have to think of a project for our house next. We haven't had a big one in awhile.

Nice looking patio. I love the pictures of the older man(men?). Is that your grandpa? His poses made me smile.
Now I want a firepit. Looks like so much fun. Good job on the family project! Those grandparents know how to get jobs done.
