Backyard Makeover

Our first step in our efforts to make our backyard more of a fun place for Jocelyn to play and for us to hang out with friends is to build a deck. Thanks to our great friends... Foley, Justin, and Butch..and their HARD WORK, we were able to knock it out in one day! I say that like I helped! Hey, I did offer drinks and get lunch!
Next, we would love to get some outdoor play equipment for Jocelyn and maybe do some landscaping around the deck...one thing at a time though!


Jocelyn woke up to the sounds of power equipment. She was VERY interested in watching Daddy work through the window and sat like that for 30 minutes! She checked on their progress throughout the day too!





Here is the finished product! We didn't need railings because it is so low to the ground. We had a last minute get-together Sunday night. Now, we need some super clearanced patio furniture. I can't find a deal that is good enough yet!


Levon built some cornhole boards for the men to play...the latest favorite activity (other than fishing) for Levon. You can kind of see in the background.
