Testing the lighting


Thought I'd post a quick blog on how things are going. Callie is TOO excited about breaking in the pool she just had to make sure pics would come out. ( that's not all that came out :o ) It looks to be a long and exciting time in this house for years to come. I think some kind of tree to block our neighbors view is in order. (That or charge for viewing and popcorn.)
there's an opening to join us for the party next spring. Drop us a line. ;) There are those that know they need no invite. You're always welcome ;)

Our yard

















The 2nd pic is where we wanna put a small hut. To hide the pump n filter and to be used as a changing room with a porta-pot for the kids so they don't run back n forth through the house.
The area along the fence in the same pic is 14ft by 30ft.
Pic 3, in the foreground is an area about 16ft by 15ft 12ft. Kindda "L" shaped.
The Hot tub will go on the slab in pic 1. That is the "L" shaped area.
The narrow space along the fence (pic 2) is 3ft by 40ft.
I would like to put a quiet sitting area on the side of the house (in pic 4). Something that would hide the trash cans and recyclable. At some point in time we want a deck off the back of the house that has a door from the master bedroom and stairs to the backyard.
Well, thats it. Can you help us Mr./Mrs. Wizard??

Anyone with Style out there????

Well, the pool is full of water and things are looking good. The Hot Tub will be in by the end of the month. (under penalty of death) Now the work starts. And here's where all of you come in. Callie an I are not what some would call "people of style" meaning, we couldn't decorate a garage. Anyone have any ideas on how to landscape and decorate the backyard??? I'm open to anything (callie can attest to that).
So here is everyone's chance to put there decorating style to work. All suggestions will be considered. Thanks.
