Keepin’ Toasty

November 24, 2010 by

My hubby and I are outdoorsy-type people, and you can almost always find us outside in the evenings. (We used to be outside enjoying an adult beverage, or 4, but now I just get to watch him and enjoy my water, but that’s neither here nor there.) When the temperatures start to drop here in Texas, it makes our favorite past time a bit harder to enjoy, but here are some items to make sure we’re always toasty outside:

  1. Gardensun Stand Patio Heater: My FAVE investment ever…tons of warmth and 0 smoke!
  2. 40 in. Copper Fire Pit
  3. Augusta Outdoor Fireplace
  4. 35 in. Iron’s Gate Fire Pit

Black Friday nuts shoppers be on the lookout because you’ll be able to snag the majority of these for up to 50% off!!!! (We got the stand patio heater last year for $50.)

Happy Father’s Day

June 18, 2010 by

To all the men in my life: If I could I would get each of you these things I have envisioned in my head…this is what they would be:

For my hubby: (1) A new knife because you love cooking me dinner every night and because this was under the “new” section at Sur la Table so I’m positive you don’t have this one yet.  And also, the latest and greatest (2) iPhone because I know you want one even though you haven’t said anything to me about it.

For my Dad: (3) This rotating water broom thing.  It just screams YOU.

For my Bro: I know you are working on your house a ton, so I figure you might need (6) something in this arena.

For my Father-in-Law: A (5) Golf Cabbie Hat, because I think they look cool and because you play golf.  I think that means you’d look cool playing golf with this on…so WIN WIN!

What I ended up getting everyone: Pictures of your son/grandson/nephew from (4) Portrait Innovations.  You know you love them!
