Your backyard

 What is your backyard like?

My backyard is a big empty space. It is full of ideas, though! Lol.

Dh and his friends will be building the firepit and surrounding area next weekend. Then, he will build two big chairs out of brick that will be angled near the fire pit, looking into the wooded area of the backyard. We will throw pillows on it from Pier 1. I saw pictures of these big brick chairs, it looked really cool.

 During the fall we will have the deck built off of the back door, with a stone path leading towards the pit. And we are hanging a tire swing up for dd. I have always loved the tire swings. They bring such character to a backyard!

Oh ya, and we will be doing a rock garden in the front yard, instead of the random island that is there now. I am trying to find a design that I like.

Share your backyard with us!

You can see a little of in in the PP. Look in top left hand corner. It's like a brick semi-circle fireplace in the corner of the yard.

It has a barn, propane tank, deck off the back of our house, above ground pool, DH's "orchard" (which is like 4 fruit trees) and our garden.
