A Place of Respite

We have a great deck off our kitchen that has really had little use since we’ve lived at this house. While we have an amazing table and chair set, it is so huge and bulky that there is little room to move, let alone rest, on the porch.

This year we started a little rearranging of sorts ~ moving the table and chairs off the porch and into the backyard and making room for some patio furniture. And flowers. Many more flowers.

The furniture arrived this last week and I quickly worked to get it all assembled and ready to use ~ because I’m too impatient to wait for my husband to do it. Those three hours might kill me, you know?

Nuts and bolts in place. Check…and double check.

Chair cushions in place. Check.

Pillows fluffed and placed. Check.

Windowboxes planted and ready to grow and grow. Check.

   purple flowers red flowers

Silly children in place to amuse me? Check and double check.

An amazingly wonderful place to sit and relax with a cup of coffee in the morning?

Ahhhhh…..

  1. Coming over to take a look ... don't be surprised if I just let myself in the backyard first and you find me on your deck. BTW: As I read this, the Google ads on the right are for timeshares ... LOL.
