We Have a Deck!!!



 
Dustin and I have wanted a deck on the front of the house for quite some time and we finally made it happen. We have a rather large patio in the back that we utilize and we'll continue to do so. This deck was something we wanted simply because getting in and out of our front door wasn't the easiest thing in the world. We had a cement slab for a front step and to get the door open you had to step back down on the sidewalk, and so on and so forth. This deck makes this much easier, and safer!

Dad met me at Lowe's to get all the materials and last Friday night Dustin and some of his friends got to work. He finished up on Saturday with a friend of ours. They did an excellent job!! And thank you, guys, for all your help! We still need to get the sealant on there, which hopefully happens sometime this weekend. (Don't you just love how I manage to find all these fun projects when I'm pregnant and not much help?!)
 
Sunday brought us back to Lowe's so I could get a new hosta, some flowers and more wood chips for the landscaping. There's a bit of landscaping that I want to do in front of the deck but I think I may have used up all my honey-do projects for the year. Might have to wait until next year for that one.  :-)
