Laowai

If we’re not at the beach you can find us at the pool this summer. I’ve turned the far end of our patio into our pool area. It’s just so easy for me to fill it up and let her play. If it’s a little chilly out I can even put warm water in since we run the hose from our kitchen sink. Our patio has been such a blessing with Bea – it’s safe and enclosed and it has plenty of space for a toddler to run around and get tired out. Here she is – aaah summer is bliss.

Check out my new bench. Dad cut the wood for me on Father’s Day and I finally got it put together and painted. I suspect Brian hates the color – but it livens up that far end of our patio. I made the same bench once before. I think it’s from an issue of This Old House magazine. It’s cheap and easy to make… if you have a saw – thanks dad.
