First Supper on the Deck!

We picked up the patio set that I've been eyeing at WalMart today... all I can say is that it is awesome. Kurt's parents also thought so when they stopped by today - (nice to see you Mom & Dad M!)

We're pretty much done working on our backyard... and for that I praise God - considering we've been working on it for over a year. It never ceases to amaze me that He gives His children such simple gifts and allows us to enjoy them - but truly believing that "every good and perfect gift is from above" - we did enjoy it tonight and are thankful! Here are some pictures of the yard, the furniture - and - of course - Oscar. :)

Oh - and I put out a "bio" post to the Life Out Loud blog tonight if you would like to check it out. Just follow the link!

I love it!! What a cute backyard - and that patio furniture...here's to eating outside <-clink->!
How's Oscar with trees and flowers and such?

Look at all that pretty green grass. We are solidly brown for the next few months, so I'm pretty envious!

Oscar has had to be "reprimanded" a couple of times for using the quaking aspen (to the right, behind him) as dental floss.:) He learned fairly quickly. (lol)
Thanks for your comments everyone - it is green because of all the thunderstorms we've been having... and occational use of the sprinklers.
Mom: stop by anytime... we had a blast with Gord and Lori yesterday... only mildly sunburned due to that amazing umbrella. :)
