Camping Sleep Over & S'Mores

Hannah is so excited to finally have a sleep over again, now that her group has all had both rounds of shots.  They are camping out in the trailer for the evening and watching some outdoor movies.  Each friend brought a treat for the evening festivities and a contribution to the parfait breakfast bar.

I went a little overboard on the S'mores Charcuterie... couldn't help myself.  Hannah and I checked all the items to make sure they were Halal approved.  The marshmallows, a few of the cookies and the Turkish Delight came from our local Halal grocer.  Fun fact, most Hersey products are Halal and vegan, so it's a vegan tray too. I had no idea!

Patio Pergola

Now that the bar is installed, we decided to go with a two tone colour stain on the Pergola from Lowes - Olympic Maximum stain in Ebony and Cedar Natural Tone.  I love it!

We repurposed the 2x6's from the carport formally on this spot and made this outdoor sectional

Thanks Sean for helping me stain all morning! 

I think the black helps define the area more instead of blending into the fence.  We have two shade screens since me and the babies are so freaking pale

Here is the before when it was a carport and Sean's hard work  

 

Sean removed the carport himself.  The roof line was so steep that 4' of the carport/covered patio was unusable

A contractor put in the cement slab, fence and posts

 This was all guess work for Sean, he is NOT a contractor.

Not bad for an IT guy.

 Our pallet coffee table LOL.  I was so over the moon when Sean bought me the fire-table for Mothers Day 2020.  Really improved all our staycations

Corrugated roof going in

The finished product before staining

Sean finally caved and built a bar.  Secondhand stools from Kijiji - $40
