At the beginning of the month I told you all about our plan to make one of our big house dreams a reality this summer. We’ve had so much rain this summer that it doesn’t look like the building process is going to be done until fall, but we’ve been enjoying the process. I’m not going to lie; our backyard is kind of hot mess with sawdust and wood piled up everywhere. But when it’s finally done I know that it will all have been totally worthwhile.
Here’s a look at the progress so far. Just for kicks – and for the new people around here – here’s how our deck looked last summer.
And here’s a look at the work in progress. I snapped these photos last evening just before the sun went down.
I’m slightly obsessed with the way the floor boards meet in the middle.
We’re going to have to make some changes to the fire pit area…….why does one project always lead to another?
Hopefully in a month I’ll have some after photos for you……we’ll see.
OMG, that floor is amazing! What an awesome project. You are going to love having a screened porch…we use ours all the time and it's a must-have for the bugs we have here in New England. Can't wait to see the progress!
