Deck

Hi there!

So this project has been done for a while but I haven't gotten around to posting anything on it yet. Anyway... Here it is finally. Unfortunately the pictures aren't all from my camera and are mostly from Jeffery's phone. During the building of the deck I was sleeping. I couldn't keep my eyes open long enough to really help him and so the pictures I have are ones he sent to people to share the progress. (I found out a few days later it was because of first trimester exhaustion. That is no joke. This baby was making me so sleepy.)

You saw us pull out the old deck.

Here is the wood for the new one.

He started by digging nice big holes to stick posts in to keep the deck stable and up to code.

The first framing pieces of the deck.

The dogs love to check out our handy work.

Here it is attached to the house and ready for decking.

First, posts need to be attached for the railing.

All done attaching them.

First pieces of decking being screwed down.

Progress. 

More progress.

Here we skip ahead to where the decking is done and the railing is also done.

Stairs installed and lights on the posts.

 Lights on in the dark.

So much nicer than the original deck. 

Thanks for stopping by!
