We (and by we, I mean Aaron) spent a good portion of today working on our fire pit. It's still not finished, but it's a lot closer.
This morning we borrowed Aaron's dad's trailer, and drove up to Lehi Block Co. to look at pavers. If you ever need pavers, Lehi Block is the place to go. They had so many styles and grades to choose from. It was a little over whelming. I was glad we'd brought a piece of the fire pit block with us to compare colors. We didn't get the exact same color as the fire pit, but something that will look nice with it, and that is the same color as the rock work on our house. So it will kind of tie everything together and make it all look really nice.
The reason the fire pit didn't get finished today is because we left the paving sand out in the rain, and it got really hard. So instead of just pouring it in like we thought we'd do, Aaron had to break it up and tamp it out, so get it fine again, because the rain had left it in hard chunks. We won't make that mistake again. :) Isn't it great that everything in life is a learning process? Haha.
Also today was our neighborhood Easter Egg Hunt. There is an awesome family in our neighborhood that puts it on every year. Basically each family that wants to participate brings 15 eggs per child that will be hunting. And each family brings a finger food to share afterwards. The kids hunt for eggs, then everyone gets together and eats and chats. It's awesome. I love our neighborhood.
