Sorry no posts lately...

I've been busy doing this:

Before
After
 The pavers above had a rough winter. I edged around them ( not done yet ) scraped all the moss off, and then scrubbed straight bleach on them, and in one minute they were white again.



And working on the lawn. It had a rough winter too.

  3. lol first off, I have a 2yr old daughter who was conceived via IUI. So we are trying again with fertility treatments....it's a long process :(

    For the pavers, it's best to get grainy dirt or sand to lay them down in the cutout of the lawn, so you can level them easier, make sense?

  6. lol Steph is my name :)

    And yes you have that right about the pavers. Get an edger ( electric or manuel, whatever ) and make a slightly bigger square than your pavers will make ( like leave an itch or less around them ) and just tear the grass out making it flat, add just a tiny bit of sand, just enough so you can level it out.
