We are loving our back yard this summer! We have added a few things that have made it more of a hang out.
We got a patio! We have been longing and waiting for this baby, for over a year! Finally it is in. Our kids put their hand prints in it making it officially ours. The only problem is, is our brilliant idea to put Lettie in the concrete. Who would have thought after 3 ultrasounds our Lettie is now a Case. Sort of funny and will make a great story one day.
We have swings!!!! Lukas and Blair have been wanting swings for a really long time. Lukas kept begging Grandpa to build him a swing set. Grandpa loves Lukas and said he would do it. Well they went to the "Man store" Which is what they call Home Depot in pursuit of lumber or something that would catch their eye to build one with. After coming home empty handed Jim's niece told them they could help. Her grandma had just passed away, and this steel swing set was in her back yard! Best part, FREE!!!! So the next day Dan, Jim, and Lukas went and dug it out. We put it in our yard, and grandpa made the swings. All we had to do to finish it was paint it. Lukas wanted silver for his side and Blair wanted purple for hers. DONE!!! Now they just are enjoying swinging. We love that the swings are wooden cause they don't get hot.
This patio set was our very first buy for our new patio! Kids come first right?
