Driveway Fun

The afternoon before Charlotte was born we spent time outside caring for our new driveway. John was filling in the trenches in the lawn and seeding grass along the edges of the driveway and I was caring for Merrie and wetting all the new concrete down.

All in all, we're pretty happy with our new driveway and patio. The colour of the patio was a little too Arizona desert in the beginning, but it's getting lighter and still has to be sealed (which will make it look more brown than red). John still has to build a fence and a deck to complete our landscaping plans, but once the patio is sealed we can get our furniture on it and enjoy some warm weather!

The driveway - it has more square footage than our basement!

New view of the backyard (including the 2 BFRs - big f#$% rocks!)

Happy girl

First cookies, now chips. Who's supervising this girl?? ;)
