our new patio!


blakey has REALLY been wanting a patio.  he wants to be able to come home from a long day of work, sit in some comfy chairs, maybe drink a beverage or two, & relax while watching the world.  

we actually looked around birmy for a new place to live with an outdoor space.  but each place wasn't quite home for us, not quite worth packing & moving & unpacking.  so we've decided to stay in our wonderful home.

& since blakey was amazing enough to let my desire to not move beat his desire for a porch, i decided to build him one.  downtown loft style.

after searching 5 stores in the greater birmingham area, i finally found these two fabulous adirondack chairs!  the hot pink one for me & the sea foam green one for blakey.  i finished the area with a black side table, a teal pitcher, & two outdoor glasses with little umbrellas.  
when blakey got home from work, he was so excited about his new patio!  we spent the evening chilling in our chairs with a glass of wine & much conversation.  we even got to watch the sunset over birmingham.

he loved it.  i love him.

& in true blakey fashion, he now wants to build a deck for our indoor patio.  haha.  oooh, blakey.  do your manly thing & build, if you must.  i'll let you know if that ever happens :)

i hope you had a wonderful weekend.

love love,
kjp.
