Today I would like to show you the transformation of our patio. With a lot of work, it has come a long way since we moved here ten years ago. In the picture below you can see how it looked after we had replaced the ugly brown shingle siding on the house and added the patio doors. There was actually no direct access to the patio before this. The concrete blocks that made up the patio always looked dirty and they were uneven in many places. They also went right up to the house so there was no space to plant anything between the patio and house. Do you see our kitty waiting to get back in the house? I don't blame him for not wanting to spend too much time our there. We didn't want to either! A few years ago, my son and hubby tore out the old concrete blocks and laid new pavers. Such a huge improvement! With some landscaping and pretty flowers, it has become a space we can really enjoy. It's been especial...
