Everyone has been waiting to see the unvailing of the backyard. With exception of the pergola and landscape lighting, it is finished!! We love the firepit (and so do the neighborhood kids). Chinook believes the water fountain was put their specifically for her. She loves to climb on top of it to get a drink of water.

Of course, John's pride and joy is his

outdoor kitchen. It turned out

spectacular. The grill he designed is

wonderful and we've already had some really good outdoor meals.

With the onset of fall, comes football season. Our Cowboys are ranked 9th in pre-season and we are ready for some great games.
