remodeling :: quasi relaxing weekend part 2

Once again, I only thought I would be able to get some creative juices out of my system only to find my husband with some other "big" plans for our weekend . . . 

After huffing and puffing all day Saturday by trying to do this all himself, he finally decided to call in for some re-inforcements . . . and I'm so glad that he did.

I was so mad at him for starting this project because I never thought I would see an end to it. But once he got a crew out here to help him they were able to tear out layers and layers of concrete, remove the grass and install some new french drains, so we are well on our way to installing a new flagstone patio! 

 . . . but as for today it's turned into a big mud puddle for Lucas!
