Our Back Project is Finished

 Our back project is finished but the back is not done yet.  We have concrete for pickle ball and basketball (We still nee to purchase a basket.)  We have a couple trees planted for shade with hopes they will grow bigger.  We have a turf for the kids to play on.  The trampoline is set up.  We have gravel with a cover to keep the ants and the weeds down--and the dust.  By the gate we have a compound which is suppose to compact and provide some protection.

The Cement Happened: Backyard

Image
 WE have been working on our backyard for sometime.  This is in East Kingman.  We had grand babies over and hoped it would be done so they could play.  They did get the grass turf patch done for them However. the cement wasn't done before they arrived but while they were here.   The kids really enjoyed watching the cement truck--even though it was early in the morning.  They said 6:30 but they actually arrived at 5:30.  We hope to use the cement pad for basketball and pickle ball.   We hope to add some pavers, some trees and some gravel.
