Last week, besides having a wedding and wedding dinner at Mimi's Cottage, we made a little progress on our big backyard project. Cement was poured to connect two patios, a pad for the garbage cans, (isn't that exciting?) and another small patio by our new shed.
Last week we had some good weather and made some good progress.

Fun to see your progress, Mimi! The patio areas will be SO nice!
I see concrete, I think "oooh, more space to sit things that HE doesn't have to mow around anymore." That pad for the trashcans is a smart thing!
Thats awesome Mimi...cottage outdoors getting more spiffed up, all those little things such as cement for the garbage cans, shed porches do make us so happy!
But the rain has come back...whats up?
Last year it was the first two weeks in june...I know cause I wrote it down.
keep us posted.
so have you been to sugar daisy in kaysville?
That is exciting. I've been a little busy lately but really want to play. Maybe next week.
It IS exciting, and I can't wait to see how you're going to dress up that shed porch!
Loving the progress Mimi! It feels so good to see freshly poured cement doesn't it? Looks like you have been busy at your house with a bit of everything. HOpe you are hanging in there ;)
You guys are getting it so nice around there...you will so enjoy it this summer! :D
We poured concrete for our garbage cans last year and it left a smile on my mouth for weeks! Hidden from view on the back side of the home. You'll love it!
Did you two lay all that concrete yourselves? If so, we need lessons. It looks good--I can't wait to see our finished backyard and gardens. (You'll do a special bloggy open house right? ;) Yes, I'm so subtle.)
Your laundry room shutters are so so cute and now I want some! And your flowers out front look so pretty--I detour past your house on purpose to see them. Love your tulip on the door too--it inspired me to copy with a Mary Engelbreit-style flower that as yet still resides in my brain. I hope you had a nice Mother's Day--I can tell you're one really cool mom. I left a comment on that post today then realized you might not see it.
Whew--can you tell I'm a nerd and haven't looked at blogs in a while? My kids have been far too busy.
I LOVE THE VERY SITE OF NEW CEMENT! hehehehehehe
For real! lol
It's my dearest wish for the summer! :-)
come (you know what or high water...) :-D
So ya, I think your new cement, all of it, even for the garbage cans is a BEAUTIFUL site to see! Good for you and the Mr.!
Glad to see the little cabin is still standing!
Enjoy you day Mimi

Well, look at all the projects you're crossing off your to-do list! Garbage can space isn't exciting or glamorous. But we all have to have it!

We've been painting around here. I guess it's just the time of year when you try to get all of those outdoor jobs done. Speaking of painting, we still have our shed to paint and I loved the light yellow color of yours. Do you know what he actual color is? I'd love to paint mine like that.
Blessings,
Marcia
Looking very good! I think trash can pads are the best idea. Wish I had one.
