Backyard finally done!!

The original natural masterpiece

What turned out to be Stage 1 of the backyard landscaping project - cobblestone patio framing the deck and part of the backyard. The remaining area is crushed rock and flagstone patio stones.

Here is Stage 2 - just finished yesterday!!! It is great that the new cobblestone pathway is level to the retaining wall and it will be a dream to shovel next winter (don't have to worry about shoveling stones everywhere). Now the fun part - furnishing my backyard.

Tylor added this retaining wall against my neighbour's fence so that the pathway could be leveled - it looks great. He even filled all my flower gardens!! Hey mom - they are just waiting for us now. The sun better be shining the one weekend you are here too.
