Brrrrrrr...it's cold outside!


OK, OK...I know that we have it really good in Texas but it is chilly (thanks goodness, no snow!). In our hot, hot summers and chilly winter days, I dream of spring and fall and sitting outside. You have seen some pictures of part of our outdoor area when I showed you the table Jeff built (in an earlier post). Here is the other side of the outdoor area...



The mantel is made from a pecan tree we had to take down to build the house. The inside mantel is almost identical. We do use the outdoor fireplace on fall nights...the sofa is a great place to take a nap or read a book.

Hope everyone getting these terrible snow storms stay safe and warm!
