Picked up the table and chairs this afternoon :)
While I was gone last weekend, hubby spread the sand amongst the pavers. The concrete on the on side is dry and the rest of the pebbles are down.
Still need plants, off course. I will pot some up this week... The other edge is still troublesome but we hope to sort that this week too...
Dinner is outside :)
Cheers

Oh, so close now...
This afternoon, hubby finished concreting in one side of the paving...
I followed him and wiped off the edges or it would show marks on the pavers.
Just need that to dry 24 hours. Need to decide what we are doing with the other edge... Concreting won't do, I don't think... Would make water pool, not run off when it rains...
Then, all that needs doing is putting the gap filling sand down and it's done. Hopefully, this will all be done before the outdoor setting gets here on Monday!
We will see...

Bit more done...
Yesterday we had 3 metres of crusher dust and a metre of sand delivered :)
This will be enough for us to finish filling up the patio area before hiring a compactor to stabilize the area. We have also decided that the edging will be concreted.
There's so much to move. Boys are getting muscles they never knew they could grow ;) Hubby and I are too moving and spreading the piles... Great family time :) And very exciting seeing the project take shape!

Sitting pretty...
Our parking area as well as our driveway need a bit of work. The rain and wind can be tough on the surface...
Last weekend, the kids and Russell moved around sand and wood chips to make a better base for where we park our cars... Worked well :) Now to do the same with the driveway... There we will be using gravel instead of sand or it too would quickly disappear...
