Improving the View

With all of the work we've been doing to get our yard ship shape, one thing always bothered me.  

Sitting at the firepit and staring at those big, bulky trash and recycling  bins. 

So I had a plan. 

(I do this a lot to my husband...  draw out something on paper for our next project.)

And we went to work. 

Of course our favorite seven year old was here to help. 

Now you see it - now you don't!

The bins are still accessible.  The fence is actually panels which lift off to wheel out the mower or the bins.  I am very happy with the reality we created. 

The Men in my Life... Happy Father's Day weekend.

Tate spent the weekend with us. We spent long days outside in the yard.

His Momma went to a concert with her sisters and Daddy had to work.

Tio had lots of help washing his car.

Papa power washed the old finish off our even older fence...  wow it looks great.

 Hotdogs & s'mores in the fire pit is a great way to unwind.

 Talking to Momma.

The Shaw version of the Hatfields & McCoys...

Funny guys...  I take so much grief from them.

Even this one loves to tease me.

Some special love for Daddy
