From 70s Plaid, to Blue, to....

The couch gets another makeover, this time a neutral brown linen. I just need some throw pillows to liven it up.

Meanwhile, in the front...

This got put in a couple of weeks ago:

Now maybe we can grow something without it being trampled. (and pee-ed on)

Putting it back together...

Backyard Make-Over Part 2

Yesterday the masons finished putting in the stone. New stone where the cement was

 and our old stone back in it's place with mortar.

Now to put the table and other things back...

Backyard Make-over Part 1

All the ugly, bumpy, cracked cement got ripped out of the backyard today...right down to the soil.
Blue-stone pavers are on the plan...but if having grass didn't require having a mower I might have considered a lawn. I'm already liking it better.

Would it be odd if I put up spot-lights and spent the night digging?? I need to know what's under there!!!
