Some backyard pics

We have been very busy lately and have done quite a bit in the backyard, here are some pics of how it is at the moment. We still have plenty to do e.g. paving the area on the side not grassed and potentially making it into a covered bbq area amongst other things. The wooden structure you see is for us to hand our double hammock in. We are trying to work out what surface to have underneath...it is currently crushed rock but we are open to suggestion.

Driveway being poured

We are having an exposed aggregate (concrete) driveway. The estate covenants require it to be dark grey, so lets hope it turns out ok!

Progress shots

Ahhh.....well we have been moved in for a couple of weeks but have been struggling to find the time to update the blog. We have been doing some furniture shopping so now have all that we need for the short term.

 

We still haven’t got our driveway done, which is currently on the top of the ‘to do list’. After that we will be installing our water tanks in readiness for the developer to do our front landscaping which was part of the package when we bought the land.

Moved in!

Fencing in

The contractors have finished off the fencing. Just a little concerned that they are in the wrong spot! So we will be going out to the block tomorrow armed with our plans, and a tape measure!
