Over the last two months Lee and I have spent every daylight, dusk and even dark minute before 10pm working out in the yard.  We restored the fence, built garden boxes, stained the fence, built a natural gas fire pit, put the plants in the ground and situated the sprinklers system and cleaned up after the contractors who had an astonishingly low quality standard.  BUT we are thrilled to say that it is essentially complete!  We have a few lingering final touches, but it's completed enough to enjoy being outside and sit on the couch after work every now and then!

We wrapped things up the morning my parents arrived.  We loved being able to inaugurate the yard with them.  And now that it's not occupying every one of our free minutes, I am finally starting to sort through pictures of our epic trip this summer.  Stay tuned!
