After clearing the path we lay down some of that weed blocker lining stuff and then Drew rented a truck from Lowes and we bought 1000lbs of pea gravel.  Poppy and I watched as Drew shoveled the gravel onto the path.  We really like how clean it looks but it definitely needs some flower pots and the steps need a clean.  There are hooks already in place for a porch swing we just need to buy one, thats next on our list of things to do.
