Patio project...complete

After much hard work on Shawn's part and very very little on my part the patio is done.  Well unless Shawn decides to use the extra pavers to have a bump out for the grill.  Here are a couple of pictures:



There was much heartache over the stain color for the original concrete.  First it was way too light, so Shawn got it darkened.  Then it was way too blue so we thought we would mix on top a tan color to tie into the pavers.  Then it was almost purple.  We have given up on the stain for now and with the pavers in it looks much better.  If need be we are going to try to power wash it to dull the color some.

Up next...planting our veggies and berries that came in the mail this week.
