Kevin, Kerriann and I spent this past weekend in NY with Kevin's parents (aka Grammy and Papa). Kerriann was so excited to see her grandparents, and Kevin was really looking forward to building a stone patio off of the back of their house. His brother, Ryan, also helped as soon as he finished up at work that afternoon. They did all they could by hand, before Kevin decided they should rent a bobcat (see pictures below) to help them level the area and move the piles of rocks from one side of the yard to the other. Though the patio wasn't completely finished when we left, they made a lot of progress for a day and a half of work.

Looking good, Daddy...
Ryan returns from work and the Bobcat arrives to help level the ground and spread the gravel layer...
After... coming soon! When we left they did have most of the rocks down but I forgot to take a picture... oops! I'll have to have them send me a picture of the finished product or I'll take one next time we're in town.
EDIT: Here's a couple of cell phone pictures that Kevin snapped before we left... almost there!
