So I started this blog as a place to cronical us finding, building, creating and making our dream house. Sadly things don't always go as planned. We do have a beautiful home and a project list a mile long. The thing about new construction however is there is this thing called a yard. In our first home we loved our little backyard we redid right before moving and it was perfect and wonderful and that was in the plans for our new house. The part that wasn't planed for were the imperfections. I've almost written about this quite a few times, but the short of it is... after getting our yard in (about 80%, we still have our patio to do which was to be done this year) we loved it and it was everything we could hope for. Until one day we started to notice water pooling in our window wells. Through a tough long winter of constantly pumping water out of window wells and cleaning up the floor in our basement, we knew that 2016 summer would NOT be patio..... it would be repair! :'(
Sadly it was a blame game between the builder and the landscaper so it came out of our pocket,
Bummer. Water where it doesn't belong is a challenge.
