Another backyard project

We are in the process of completely redoing our backyard. Needless to say, the couple that lived here before us were pretty darn lazy in the backyard. At least the rest of the house and the front yard were in really good shape so I won't complain too much. They had this ridiculous deck that maybe one person and a small chair could fit on. Hello? Where do you put the bbq?? Then they were WAY lazy by putting river rock everywhere leaving only a small patch of grass. What grass is there is in pretty bad shape but we're putting our faith in the Trugreen gods that they will fix it. The best part? They stained the fence.. but only so much of it so we have a lovely hue of colors on our backyard fence. I was a little worried to do the backyard because it seems like just when we got our Keller house exactly the way we wanted it, we moved!! I'm not thinking that will happen here though so we should be good to go. Here's some pics of the process along with some of the kiddos playing in their trashy backyard;-)

The new deck "foundation". Now THIS is the size a deck should be!
