We've Been Busy

And by we, I do mean the royal we. Derek did most of the work.

Since we bought this house, we have wanted to put a deck in our pitiful yard.

Finally, we can say we did it!

If I knew what I was doing, I would put these in a little photo video spiel with inspirational "we can build it" music. Maybe next time, because I'm sorry--I can't do that for you.

Groundbreaking

We started the first week of April once we recovered from our California trip! Believe it or not, there was still snow on the ground in places although not in this photo.

This is how I help.

The above two photos were taken Easter Sunday. That was also the first time we "dined" out on the deck. We ordered McAllisters, and they were closed...because it was Easter Sunday, as previously mentioned. So, we settled for Steak n' Shake.

Odd how one remembers weird things like that.

Pretty much done at this point. Just waiting on furniture!

Casey's pool fits!

Where you can find me most nights

Most of our furniture is in, and hopefully at some point I will remember to take a full on photo of how nice it all looks! D did an awesome job, and we are out here almost every night!

Happy Memorial Day everyone! Enjoy the nice weather.
