We bought our house in January 2010 and this is what the deck looked like on the day we closed:
My MIL graciously gave us a gazebo as our housewarming gift and we always look forward to putting it up when the weather warms up:
It is the perfect shield from the hot sun and the screens do an amazing job of keeping out bugs (especially the pesky mosquitoes).
The table and chairs was a birthday gift from Garth last summer and is the gift that keeps on giving. I love this table and the memories we have already created around it. And the chairs are literally the most comfortable ever.
My brother and SIL generously gave us a gift card to Lowe's for our housewarming gift and we knew just what to get. A firepit:
This firepit introduced us to so many neighbors because Garth and I would just out here for ours our first spring at the house and neighbors would come join us. We had many a laugh, s'more, and conversation sitting around this pit. Good times. Eventually I will get pillows to set up around the bench to make it more comfortable.
Depending on the time of year, we see turkeys, rabbits, deer, and even a fox. We see lots of hawks, woodpeckers and chipmunks too. We just love it!
Does anyone else love their backyard as much as love ours?
