A Very Productive Weekend

We had a very productive weekend around here! Issa spent most of the weekend at the studio, and the boys and I spent most of the weekend in the backyard building our outdoor dojo/meditation space. It was a bigger project than we expected! 

After layout out the four-by-fours for the platform, we realized that the ground was super unlevel. So we rented a tiller to fix it:
It took us three trips to Home Depot to get the wood because the Subaru can only haul so much, and Brad finished screwing in the last board Saturday night as the sun was setting. The whole day was spent leveling, hauling wood, and starting to build the gazebo.

Yesterday morning, Evan and I finished building the gazebo:

Issa was able to help us hand the screens and curtains:
And in a day and a half we have a new outdoor room:
We have mats, pillows, and a cool solar lantern coming this week so we can completely finish it next weekend! I'm hoping to sleep out there at least one night next weekend, and we are looking forward to having a screened in place to enjoy some fresh air.
