~~~ The NEW Driveway!!!~~~

Happy Sunday! Hope you all are having a good day. I am LAZY today. I couldn't remember if I ever showed you the driveway redone??? Any way it still makes me SO happy to have it done. It doesn't take much to excite me, huh??? LOL! The driveway has been bad for years then back in March we had trees removed and the crane REALLY damaged the driveway. But we had planned to redo it anyway, so this just pushed us ahead. Here are some of the BEFORE pics.
 Cracks and upheaval!


 Lovely...
 Dangerous, actually. You could really turn your ankle on this.
 Oh brother, it got worse when they backed out!

 TA DA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is SOOOOOO nice. SMOOTH as silk. We had had about a 4 inch drop as you drove into the garage for years due to settling and now it is a smooth ride! AHHHH.....

 These were taken in June. It is not a big deal to most people but to me it is:):) I am going to join these parties:

    Hi Pinky! Oh, I'm so happy for you! The drive way looks wonderful!
    I found those little bowls at Ross!
    I'm sorry you don't have any Roos or Chicks! We must change that.
    Be a sweetie,

    It is, indeed, a big deal. It's a beautiful drive. We need one sooo bad but not seeing one in our near future.

    I know EXACTLY how you feel -- we just had our driveway redone as well and added a carport in the back -- It's WONDERFUL.

    Pinky, your new driveway looks great. I know how exciting it is. We had ours redone last year.
