This spring, we decided to have some landscaping done in our backyard. What started as a small retaining wall eventually turned into multiple levels and natural stone and a conservatory!!
The project began back in June, and it is still going on. This is the start of the project with the digging into our slope! 
Next, we added the boulder retaining wall. Each of these boulders could weigh 3-4 tons!! After seeing this, it was hard to imagine the conservatory in front. Absolutely love the boulders, and can just see sitting on them and climbing on them!
Next came the conservatory, which is essentially a 3 season porch with windows! It is 10x12, and we think it will be a great bug-free area to hang out in with friends and family. It is tucked back into the woods, so you really feel away from things in there. The best thing is that you can see the boulder wall behind it while you are sitting inside! That makes it such a great spot!
Today, the mini-boulders were delivered to start the stone wall that will create our patio levels! The stones are beautiful, and the wall is supposed to be started on Tuesday or Wednesday!!!! Hopefully the entire project will be completed by the fall so we can enjoy it!
