Adding Colours and Dimension to a Drab Yard

Home and Garden
My back yard is really boring and even though the grass grows great it has too many small hills and dips for practical use. I do like hanging out here though, and often put up one of those EZ up gazebos when the sun shines.
Still, it needs some work, does my back yard! I want to bring some top soil in, level it out, and then replant the grass. Once the new grass has grown I want to build a brick patio that connects to a walkway that will run to the back stairs. I want the walkway to also be made of brick and I will have flower beds running down the length of it. I want to put a shade tent up on the patio and have my bamboo lawn furniture under it. The back yard is fenced in but I hate the fence, so after I swap it out for bamboo screening I will also plant flower beds along the back wall and place some rhododendrons randomly through out the yard. These will add color and dimension the yard needs badly.
