Well Darn
 
1 Attachment(s)
We have been working on our back yard for over a year now. Last year my DH and I decided to get a new patio set. We gave each other the table and umbrella for our anniversary and the chairs for Christmas. Well we finally finished the yard and planted the seed last weekend. We finally put up the table, chairs and umbrella only to discover that a pole was missing from the umbrella.

The good news is I took it back to Lowes (even though we bought it last July) they looked to see if they had a new one or the pole. They didn't. Then they called around to a couple of their other stores, they didn't have them either. So they are going to order me a new one, and completely refunded me for the one missing the pole.

I attached a picture of our completed back yard minus the umbrella. (the grass has not grown yet)

your yard looks really nice. Bet you will have lots of good times at that table this summer.

We broke it in last night with a chess game.

Michelle, it's all beautiful!!! I would love to have a back yard like that. Did you all do the work yourselves? It's a beautiful design!

Wow, you've done a beautiful job on that yard! I love how it flows so nicely and is so inviting! Once the grass comes in it's going to be awesome!

My DH did almost all of the work. I helped a little. He thought of everything. He even put an outlet out there for me to plug my laptop in.

We were just crawling down on the patio, we thought we saw a couple of blades of grass come in.

Michelle, your back yard looks great!!! I wish that I could get my husband to finish my back yard. I really like the layout of your yard. It definitely looks like something that will be well used. Good job!!!
