I have only just begun...
but the white shelf is out there now...
and hydrangea fill the pots I used in the antique mall for my post cards and tags...
figured out a way to hang my flag...
clothes pins...
been saving this for the right time...
and its now...
a bowl of fresh cut flowers from our beds and pots...
had to move the lantern here...
when the flag blew it caught on it and that's a big no no...
so the yellow pot is back here...
I love floating little flowers...
ok- down here will be paved, too...
this is DH's designated grilling area...
he claimed it...
and the yard is already starting to turn brown again, but it was green most of the week...
next chance of rain in Monday with cooler days again...
going slow today and taking my time...
can't seem to get my energy back up there...
could take a few days...
I just want to thank all of you for all your kind words...
this deck is a big blessing for us...
and it will be a joy for years to come...
and God led me to the right men to build it...
the wait was well worth it and God had a plan all along, like always...
the best thing about it...
DH is now confessing this...
I have seen him begin to develop faith...
this is something he has never possessed...
he has been a doubter and self doer...
but on a drive the other night...
he started talking and he said...
its just like you always say, the delay was for a reason...
God had someone better in mind for the building...
see, you never know who is watching you...
how you handle things...
how you make it through each day...
so live by example...
pray for guidance...
and keep your faith...
the deck is more than a deck...
its an awakening...
a lesson...
and daily reminder that things will happen in God's time...
by His will...
Bless you hearts for hanging with me...
