I mentioned before that the outdoors was one of our bright spots in this whole renovation process.
Aside from our new Outdoor kitchen that I brought back from Atlanta, my father has come and visit us from the Philippines! I know what your thinking, 'how can visitors be any good during a chaotic renovation?'. Well, you would be glad too if your visitor is my dad.
You see, he is very handy and enjoys building and fixing things. And with all the things I want changed or done, he couldn't have come at a perfect time & help my hubs!
Ok, let's get back to the outdoors. After we got the outdoor kitchen, you probably noticed this..

| YUP, I very TIGHT deck because of the bulkiness of the kitchen |
 |
| That's my hard-working dad there doing our project |
It took my Dad and hubs about 5 days to finish this thing. And here it is now...
 |
| TA-DAAA! |
 |
| Can you see how big this area is NOW? |
 |
| This was how it looked before |
 |
| Now, with the outdoor kitchen & DECK EXTENSION, it is even more prefect for entertaining! |
 |
| We are definitely using this a lot now that my kitchen is OUT OF ORDER! |
THANK YOU SO MUCH DAD AND HUBS - YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!! MWAH!
Have a Great Week!

It is perfect! My dad was so handy like that, too...I MISS HIM, but my husband and son are great at it as well, if I can get them on my agenda. Glad you have that fab grill while your kitchen is out of order! Enjoy your outdoors, I feel like our days are numbered at ours :(. Hate to see summer end.

Wow, you are really getting a lot accomplished, Vel. It looks so nice. Just a small addition like that made such an improvement. I'm so glad your dad could help out. I imagine he is feeling very good about being able to be there. My hairdresser is from the Philippines so I hear about it when I see her.
ReplyDeleteIt looks amazing- your whole outdoor space is so put together and gorgeous!
