Perfect spot for winter days and summer nights!

When we were house hunting in Arizona we considered the outdoor living space just as carefully as the indoor. You can be outdoors all year long so it really is an extention of your home. We were so lucky to find such an amazing space with incredible views in a house that we really love! Now if we could just get the yard in shape! We keep telling ourselves one thing at a time! ;)




My new lounge chairs Weston got me for my birthday! I love to lay out here in the evenings (we have gorgeous sunsets in Vail). Also, a comfy spot to lay in the sun...thank goodness the pool is right there...it gets HOT fast!


Our gas firepit...the boys like to do s'mores out here.


I love having a covered patio...a must have on hot summer days and nights. Next up we want to get a ceiling fan above our table to keep it even cooler. Luckily the sun never shines directly towards our patio so it's usually pretty comfortable.


I finally got some flowers planted in my pots.

I love your backyard!! Looks like a resort. That is great that you don't ever have direct sun on your back patio. Ours get his directly from about 3 o'clock on and it is HOT! Thanks for typing on my blog so I knew you had one:)

P.S. We must be on the same wave length for colors, my colors in our house our punches of lime green and orange. I absolutely love them!
