My Husband, the Pergola builder

This post has been long overdue. 

[although I have been waiting for it to have the final coat of paint before I post, but we can't decide on a final color]

My Husband designed and built the pergola completely by himself!  I am so proud of him and how far he has come with his woodworking.  While it took the better part of a few months to complete, it really adds a lot to our yard.  I am excited for the vision we have of adding two adorandak chairs and a firepit underneath.  It seems like with us progress on our yard goes slowly and steadily, but eventually we get closer to where we want to be.  If John had it his way he would spend all of his time designing and building things for our house.  Which reminds me of a few more projects I need to post ;)

I set up the tripod and made us take this photo on the Fourth of July.  I love having photos of our whole family, but rarely get them.
