Our New Patio

Well, we finally went from planning the patio to pouring the patio! We had Simple Creations in Concrete come and pour our patio for us and they did a fantastic job! We had them pour an 11X30 foot patio and they stamped the top to give it a nice texture. I'm hoping when my dad comes up that he can add a little color to it. As soon as I let Ashton walk on it, he ran in circles on top of it for about 30 minutes. I know finishing the backyard is going to be a huge help in releasing all his energy. He loved watching the guys work asking what they were doing every 20 minutes. When they were carrying the concrete from the front to the back, he sat on the patio yelling at them that they were making a mess. At first he just had his feet dangling off the edge and then his whole body was only hanging onto to the railing. He is a funny kid. We are so excited to have the patio completed. Now we can buy our lounge furniture and enjoy the spectacular dessert sunsets. Since the patio is done, Aaron got right to work pouring in rocks and creating an edge. He has only done one side, but it's all we had the materials for. The rest may have to wait just a little longer. Step 1 complete, many more to come.
