After sharing the view through the living room doors last week I thought I’d share a peak at what’s just beyond. It’s the deck on our little house by the lake. This space had us sold the minute we stepped through those doors back when we first toured this house. It was one of those moments in house hunting that you have when you know that a house could be “the one” Our lake house has come a long way since then. Want to come take a look?

The weather has been warming up nicely and we find ourselves out on the deck quite a lot these days. We still have a number of things that we need to do out here. The deck rails need to be painted like yesterday and our coffee table was on it’s last leg so I made the executive decision to get that out of the way. I’m keeping my eye out for something just right that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg.

The deck is split into two main areas the seating area and the grilling area. Bryan is all about grilling and he’s a huge fan of charcoal so we have one next to the propane grill. I prefer the speed of propane and use it all the time. We have the glass console table left for us by the previous owners which acts like an island and I love having a place to set down plates as I cook.

Someday we’d love to add an outdoor sectional sofa and a small dining table but for now I think I’ll go have a seat and enjoy the view 🙂
