Tyler, you'll be here JUST in time to help me finish the patio, baahahah! Nah, I should have all the slabs hauled by then, I'll just need you to help me lay them into place to get the best design. Then we'll dump a bunch of sand on it to fill in the cracks and ****. It'll be alright, chillin in the sunshine sippin some tasty brews, and probably grillin steaks!
Alright, its been over a year since I've updated this thread, and lots of things have changed.
Funny that the slabs were mentioned above (again, over a year ago). Tyler and I just got around to doing that a couple months ago. It actually turned out pretty well. In the spring, the wife's plan is to stain the concrete, then I will go back over it and fill/level out the cracks with more concrete to give it a more even look (aka, more 'drunk' friendly, lol). Here it is for now..


Since those pics were taken, the yard has been sloped up to the edges making it look a lot cleaner. Still need to plant grass.
Then, my Mom and one of my Aunts came down to help us with out landscaping. It was absolutely horrendous before, just a ridiculous pile of crap everywhere as if the old lady who lived here before just threw a bunch of seeds around.
Before..


Now..


Most of this stuff won't really grow in until the spring, but you get the picture. New siding for the house will come in the spring, if all goes to plan.
And now, for the grand finale. The part I'm sure you guys will be most interested in, Project: MORE GARAGE! My father in law and I put in over 24 hours of work on this sucker last weekend. We're very happy with the results thus far. Obviously theres still quite a bit to do, but it will be complete before snow fall.





The WRX, all cozy in her new home!

I now have almost twice the storage/car parking space, two stalls, and a nice, clean, eventually well lit project area! Soooo stoked!
I will continue to update this thread as the garage, and everything else progress.
