Back Patio

The big Boom Truck!

Over the weekend (on the day it was supposed to be over 106 degrees), Grandpa Larry brought his boom truck over with some concrete pavers to give us a larger patio area in the back yard.  Uncle Caleb was home for a couple of days, so daddy took advantage of his help.  The boom truck arrived while I was still in bed, but I quickly bounced out of bed, downstairs and out the door when I heard it was here!

Grandpa Cary helped Grandpa Larry get the pallets on the lift and then Grandpa Larry used a remote control (which I thought was WAY COOL!) to move the lift to drop the pavers where we needed them.  Then daddy and Uncle Caleb moved them around.  Grandpa Larry had a diagram indicating where each paver should go.  Daddy added some sand to fill between the pavers.

And this is the end product - not too bad! Now the grills have a home (not in the grass where they used to be.)
