It first started with idea of building a deck. The concrete porch in the backyard was cracked and uneven with an ugly green outside carpet covering it which was there when we moved in. By the time I thought about taking a picture, this is what Curtis had already started.
This is what it looks like after he finished!!
He then decided to put brick on the end of the porch because the door that goes into our den wouldn't be able to open with a deck. This is how it looked before. (Our dog looks pathetic!)
Here's afterward!
So after the deck Curtis still had time off and some money left over so he (I) decided to replace our 25 year-old stove and oven. Here's our stove before:
Here's Curtis in the mix of things!!
Our new stovetop!!
Here's our old oven.
The new one!!
I'm so proud of Curtis for spending all his extra time doing major projects around the house. He is so handy and I am so proud of him. Putting the new oven in was not easy and it took a day of sanding the edges and bruised legs to get that thing it. But it is so worth it!!

wow Stacy thats awesome!! Good job Curtis! Your backyard looks so good now.
Impressed with new deck-didnt realize curtis had it in him. My hubby didnt work for 7 months and nothing like that ever got done.
I love your new stove and ovens-its about dang time. Im suprised that curtis didnt say-oh we dont need one, I can fit in here perfectly and heat the food for you!! (im refering to the picture of him where the stove should be). Cant wait to see you in 3 weeks!!
It's about time! There is some benefit to being home with no work-huh?
Wow! Does your husband have any extra time that he can take for a trip over to Arizona. I need a handy man around here.
