The Deck: Project Complete!

After devoting many weekends and spare time here and there, I am happy to say that the deck is complete and up for business! 

Here are some pictures of the final touches:

Putting up the railing and making sure it's level
Putting in all the balisters... it's tedious work!
We re-used most of the wood from the previous deck and unfortunately, it was painted red.  So my major contribution to the deck project was sanding all the wood.  I'm bummed that there are no pictures of this, but trust me, it was hard and dirty work! 

It's starting to look like a deck!
Staining is finished
Yippee...the deck project is complete!!  Now it's time to concentrate on getting our grass to grow.  Since the backyard was our workshop for the past couple months, we didn't have our sprinkler system on so a lot of our grass is still dormant.  Time for some TLC to wake up our grass!  Fortunately, Craig has spent a lot of time on our front yard grass so stay tuned for that post!
