Ditch the granite idea, take the $2000 you'll have left from doing a wood deck, pull the windows and put in 2 sets of slding doors, one from the kichen and one from the family room.

I'm liking this idea (except maybe french doors rather than sliders). The family room is pretty large (500 sq ft) and centrally located, so natural light is nil and sliders/french door would add to this even from a shaded location. My only concern is that I'm a DIY guy and I don't know about tackling any cutting out of the brick if needed. This (all??) type of brick house is just a veneer over normal wood frame, so it's not like the house will fall down but I'm worried about big sections falling loose if I do the wrong thing.
