Move Update Part 2

I thought I would show you our great covered patio, it is huge!

We are going to recover the chairs with a plastic table cloth type fabric so they can withstand the weather for a little longer. Read this is a cheap option!I love that it fits the gas grill and our smoker. We are probably going to move the bar chairs and black table out of there.

In one picture you see the other back door(black) and where the smoker is, it is a great backyard! WE came from a new development that never had birds (except for the occassional hawk) and we never ever saw a squirrel. So far in the 3 weeks we have been her I have seen cardinals, lots of squirrels and several mockingbirds. It is funny how you don't miss those things until you realize they were gone!

I hope to do a small herb garden on the ledge!

The last picture is off the backyard. You can see why nature really seems to like our yard with all the vines. The dogs love it too. If you notice our garage is detached. There are numerous feral cats that wonder around also, which has led to a flea issue the love the top of garage. The love to sit up there and laugh at our little dogs while driving them crazy! We are going to have to spray some stuff in the yard, our poor dogs are being over run with them, even though they have had flea treatment. UGh we hate fleas!


We love the outdoors and so the covered patio was a huge plus for us! We hope to do school outdoors some in the spring and fall. Hopefully dh can get a good deal on an outdoor fireplace (from work) so we can utilize this area soon! We need to replace a little wood from the walkway and the deck but it will not be that much and we can take the cost off the materials off the rent.

Today my goal is to work on the dining/education room if you look down a couple of posts you will see the before I hope to post the after tomorrow! what else am I too do on a rainy stormy Saturday?
