Backyard Overhaul!!

To prepare for our baby gender reveal party we had to get our back yard into tip top shape!!
 
Hence our backyard overhaul!! Here are some exclusive before and after photos :)

You can see our newly constructed privacy fence in the distance
As well as the patio blocks Tyler laid to bridge the gap between our concrete patio and the house where the tiki bar now sits....Gypsy LOVES the new back yard! 
Our new tiki bar
 
Here are some additional comparison photos:
 
Remember this old bench project from months ago?...
After
 
As you could see in an earlier photo this potting bench was left behind by the previous owners
 
So I had the grand idea to turn it into a fun tiki bar :)
Tyler pressure washed it up, we replaced the sink, bought a sign on sale at hobby lobby and thanks to my MIL LuAnn for giving me some of the décor from our wedding rehearsal dinner to accent the green and orange color scheme.


 
New stainless steel sink...we use it as an ice bucket to hold water or beer bottles!!
 
Cast iron bottle opener purchase at Menards!
 
We have had these Adirondack chairs for YEARS and I mean years like well 5 at least!!
They finally got the coat of paint they deserved :)
 
 
 
I leave you with a close up of one of my gnomes who found home in the new backyard.
 
 
HAPPY MONDAY!!
