Landscape Project

The Karamesic household does not buy anything on credit (with the exception of our home).  This is really the way to go, but I have a hard time patiently waiting for home projects to get done.  A major project we were waiting for was finishing the patio.  We usually accomplish one large home project a year.  This year it was finally time for pavers and landscaping!  Here is what our patio looked like before:

     

A lot of dirt!  We thought pavers would look nice, provide a space for Bean to play, and a space for Amel and me to relax. On the recommendation of one of Amel's coworkers, we went with Outdoor Lifestyles Landscaping.  The owner told us it would be a two day job.  We thought he was being over enthusiastic, but he was right!

Take a look at the end result!

There are still a few things in the works for the patio: A lemon tree, more flowers, a little garden space, maybe a fountain, and a chicken coop (yep, you read that right).  I think the pavers turned out beautifully and look forward to hanging out on the patio.  Patience pays off in the end!
