Backyard Makeover!

I have to give big props to Eric for this makeover. He did the entire thing by himself and it turned out amazing!! The backyard started out without a single tree, bush or flower in it and only had a small concrete slab for a patio. Over the past few months he has totally landscaped it, edged it with stone and put in a new expanded patio with pavers. The amount of work that he put into it is amazing and I asolutely love the way it turned out. Thanks for all of your hardwork babe! Here are some before and after pictures.

BEFORE

Eric getting ready for a hard days work.

He used A LOT of sand to expand and even out the patio

Notice that here is no landscaping along the fence...

The patio before the pavers are put down, and right after our fence was stained!

One of the sections of landscaping Eric did



I LOVE this section. He even planted all of the flowers for me :)

Our new patio!

It is much bigger!
