The Beautiful Finished Product

So the last time you saw the deck, there was a lovely dirt patch. We now have a nice square of grass (literally, it's a sqaure) and a great deck with some cool patio furniture. About the patio furniture...so I bought it the day before Jamie flew out to New Zealand and I was a bit disappointed that he wasn't going to see the finished product with the patio set. We didn't think anything of it and went to bed. Well, low and behold the next morning, the patio set was set up and ready for use on our deck. Sneaky Ross had gone out IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT and put the whole thing together for us! Talk about spoiled.

Which Leads Us to the Summer...

The first week of July was a great one for us! My aunty Joan and uncle Barry gave us a wonderful gift; they gave us their cottage for a week of fun in the sun. It was a great holiday and super relaxing. Jamie was stoked to find out that they had a little sailboat and he took it out for a run. It was an awesome time and we hope that we can go back again next summer, hint hint. :)

Hey, it's been a while...

So Jamie and I constantly forget to update this blog, it's kind of funny! We're just so busy that this seems to slide, even though I love getting updates from other peoples' blogs (I am a blog hypocrite)! So here are some photos to update people that check this "just in case". (I am thinking of you Dorothy! ha ha)





Okay, so wayyy back in May 2008, Jamie and I were lucky enough to book a contractor to build us a fabulous deck. He was a live in contractor and the bonus was his lovely wife came too. Okay, it was Jamie's dad, who seems to be able to do anything, and he built us the most amazing deck ever! It was also finished in May, but I have to get a more recent photo of the finished product.
Here is the beginning...
