Decktacular!

Today we finished our new deck and we love it. It turned out really nice. They started Wednesday and by Friday they were finished. The deck overlooks the park that is in our backyard. Tonight we sat at on it and enjoyed the view and watched a city league soccer game. It was nice to enjoy the weather (even though it was kind of cold) and neighborhood.
The best part about the deck is now we have an entrance from our house to the backyard. This will be so nice when we need to grill or watch Clancee play in the backyard.
This is the view from the other side.
This picture was taken on Thursday. As you can see it was a big project. It was hard to kept Clancee and all the neighbor kids out of the backyard and away from the project. They kept wanting to check it out and see how it was coming along.
This is the beautiful deck we had before. It wasn't even big enough to put our grill on it. When Clancee was little it was perfect because she could still be outside but was trapped and could not go anywhere.

Now that the deck is done, now comes the yard maintenance. Time to weed, curb and clean up. It never ends.
