Summer Backyard Dreaming

6 · · Leave a Comment

When I was growing up my parents had the best backyard with the perfect porch for family gatherings. During the summer we spent all of our time out there. We ate every meal out on the covered porch and spent hours just sitting in the cool summer nights enjoying the crisp summer nights in Colorado. In fact, my husband and I came to realize that we were going to get married out on that porch one spring night twelve years ago. That porch has so much history and is a magical place in my life.

Now that I'm the Mom, I want to create that magical oasis in my backyard for my kiddos. A place where they feel comfortable bringing their friends over, a place where we can gather as a family and just enjoy being together outside away from the plugged in world we live in. I have yet to create that place in my backyard. Living in Las Vegas, nice backyard living doesn't come as naturally. Our yards are typically surrounded by ugly cinder block walls with very small patches of grass surrounded by a sea of rock. Not exactly an ideal oasis like these…

A girl can dream right? I've been shopping around trying to find the perfect patio furniture for my magical oasis for my family and I've found some fun items that I would like to use as the base element for my yard…

I can just picture either of these pieces as a good start to my backyard living space for the family. I love the clean white and it would be so much fun to dress up with my own personal elements. I can just picture all of the fun that we can have out in our summer oaisis. Barbeques, slip-n-slide dates with friends, late nights under the stars with my sweetheart… I can't wait to get started!!

Now that I have shared what would turn my backyard into my perfect summer oasis, I want to know what you’ve done to transform your backyard into your oasis. One of my lucky readers will win a $25 Sears gift card!

Need help finding your own pieces for your backyard? Sears is bringing the ease of searching for those perfect pieces with their recently launched iPad digital catalog. On your computer? Don't fear, Sears has an amazing digital catalog built just for you.

Kristen from Dine & Dish captured my heart today with her new waffle offering, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Waffles. Her recipe really captured my imagination and I can't wait to try my hand at some creative waffles. What do you guys think?  Are you starting to see waffles pop up all over the place?  They are perfect… they can be breakfast and dessert all wrapped up in one.  Love it!!

Now it's time to PARTY!!
