We have a new deck!

Haven't been doing a lot of sewing lately as we've been working on the house doing more unpacking and cleaning up. My brother in law and nephew have a deck building company and just finished up making our first deck. It'll be so nice to sit outside since we don't have grass yet. This deck is covered so we should be able to sit here a lot even when it's raining. We have to pick up our patio chairs yet; our kids have been storing them :-). Here is the view to the right side of the deck:

View to the back...we have a ravine here so no neighbours that we can see:


We hope to build a shed under the deck to store the lawnmowers and garden tools:
Railing along the back. We hope to build another deck next summer halfway down to the ground and connect it with a stairs. We will remove the left railing to make the stairs:

It even has a quilt on it already :-). Actually, this one is a little small...I have another one on the go that's bigger which should work perfectly for this table:

We have a natural gas hookup on the deck so now we need to go shopping for a barbecue :-).
