Many years ago my dad suggested to us that maybe we should turn our front yard into a driveway and then he sketched out a picture of what he thought it’d look like and about how much it’d cost. We kept that picture on our fridge for a long time, not ever pulling the trigger on getting the work done. As with most things that my dad (or mom) suggest to us around our house, when we finally converted our front yard into a paved driveway, we loved it.
Too bad we waited so long to do it and too bad that when my dad and Izak came to work on it, Washington decided to have some record-breaking heat. We went through plenty of popsicles the days they were here….the girls were very helpful, too.
