Patio Fun.

Today we had an exciting purchase for the backyard...a new patio dining set! This is something that Robert and I have wanted for a while and we found a nice deal on some chairs at Home Depot and a fabulous deal at JC Penny's on the table! It took up quite a bit of room in the Tahoe on the ride home --Elena had to brace it a little~lol.

Once we got it home Robert started assembling...

...while Elena ran around and played in the backyard.

More assembling...

...and more playing, this time with Cooper!

Yay -- it's done!

We decided to grill out and initiate the table set with dinner outside tonight. It was slightly windy but we really enjoyed it, and it is something we will be doing much more often now! Robert and I have also been working on perfecting our grilled shrimp recipe, we had it one time at Bubba Gump Shrimp Co and have been trying to replicate it ever since! I think we have finally got it - so yummy!!

We can't wait to have friends over and entertain on our new patio furniture!!
