Our new patio

As a Mother's Day gift, my mom bought the pavers for our new patio. We (meaning mostly me) dug up the sod and dirt, laid some landscaping fabric, poured the leveling sand, and placed the slabs. Sounds simple, eh? Not so much. I plan on doubling the size of it at some point. It's way smaller than I thought it would be. But here's the photos.

There was a huge pile of dirt that I'd dug up that needed to be moved so Frank and Sophie grabbed their shovels and went to work.
