Cookout Anyone?!

I promise I will blog on more things than just purchases... but I had to share this.

Since we have a nice peaceful private backyard I have been desperately WANTING (Not needing) patio furniture for our mighty large patio/deck. As we all know that stuff can be expensive. So I kept saying I wouldn't buy anything until the end of the summer when all the patio stuff was on clearance.. Well people the time is HERE--- But at the time... only at one store.. Walmart. Jacky and I went "looking". I never had any intention on buying anything that day. So we went to all kinds of stores and they were all around $300 to $500. Jacky said, "I just can't imagine paying $500 for something that is going outside". Last stop.. Walmart. There two things sat for the same price. Well, then I pondered for at least 30 minutes if I wanted a loveseat, two chairs and a coffee table OR four chairs and a table. Needless to say, Jacky got a little frustrated with my indecisiveness. :) This was my final decision all for $150. GOLDEN! Now I'm just looking for some new throw pillows... but don't tell Jacky. :) 

During the complete madness 

Have to keep the chair people shaded.. so we bought an umbrella, too.

That night, I literally sat out there forever enjoying the night in awe of God's creation. If it will stop raining... I would love to do that way more!

 So... Who is coming over for a cookout?!

Jacky's Here . . . Well at Least for this One Post

  What's up world, I mean followers of Cayte's blog, all 3-4 of you :) This is Jacky coming to you for a moment. I found it somewhat necessary for me to make a post.

1. Cayte hasn't posted in a long time
2. The blog does have my name in it, though I didn't agree to it, but I didn't disagree with it either.
3. Cayte has put up all this stuff around the house without mentioning a single thing of my room

So, for those of you interested or who have at least managed to keep reading at this point, here's some news on my room. 

When we originally got the house, the room was green along with the carpet being green, too. I think the Incredible Hulk was the interior designer. . . . Just check out these pics

 

What can I say besides, thank God for paint and friends that help.

Not much happened afterwards, we filled the room with what furniture we had at the time which happened to be half of the sectional that's down there now. The other half went upstairs until our other couch arrived from Ashley.

Blah, blah, blah time passed. Sometime later I got bored and wanted to do something for the room. So, I built a table.

  

Abra cadabra, poof bam and here's the room:

 

 

So, I had my room, my area to relax, play some games, watch movies with the wife, but once again, I got bored with it . . . and made a dvd/video game shelf.

Sorry for the non-HD photo, this was taken with my cell phone

Blah, blah, blah more time has passed, and yet again, I got bored/not fully satisfied with the room. I still needed a little something extra to give it my own mark. With thoughts brewing, it finally hit me, and I decided to incorporate football which means it has to be the Cowboys. 

**Special note: now that I am married to a Titans fan, that means Titans have to be included, too; sure, I know what some people may think, "you're the man, it's your room" but as any man in a good marriage knows,  you must keep the wife happy.
