Fun in the Sun: BBQ Season ☀️

This Summer I’m dedicating myself to nothing but fun in the sun! As a part of that I’ve gone out and created the PERFECT backyard hosting space fit with everything a perfect backyard BBQ needs. These include:

• A beautiful patio with potted plants

• A fully screened in gazebo with fairy lights

• Additionally: a few curtains and a projector to watch movies outside under the gazebo

• A fire pit for making s’mores

• A charcoal BBQ grill to fire up some delicious brats and kebobs

• A beautiful outdoor dining set that can fit 8 people

• Corn hole, badminton, ladder toss, and washers

• A few buckets of water balloons 😈

• Tiki torches around the outside

• A bose speaker

My backyard set up is COMPLETE! Whoo hoo! My first BBQ is this weekend and I am so excited to have my friends and family and all their little puppies over. I have been practicing with my charcoal grill so that way I can grill everything just right. My house is also 95% complete so I’m super excited to show it off to my family and see what they have to say! I’m sure they’ll love it.

I spent a few hundred on facebook marketplace buying some awesome used stuff like a $6k dining set for only $200! Thank you rich ppl who can’t stand little issues on things. 🙏🏻 She seriously was like, “I don’t know what to do with this, it’s wobbly!” And all I had to do to fix it was tighten a singular bolt. I wish I was joking. I am not. Her loss, my gain. I now have a super gorgeous dining set for super cheap. Especially since any brand new set of the same quality would easily be thousands of bucks. And that’s how I got most stuff! One lady had dying plants and I bought em and now they’re flourishing. One dude hated his BRAND NEW tiki torches and so I bought a $72 set of 8 new torches for only $20. Everything I’ve managed has felt like such steals and my backyard looks gorgeous because of it! Winning all around.

I plan on having multiple BBQs at my house this year, at least once a month. Just last night I had friends come over to roast marshmallows and have our dogs play together outside. It’s so much fun. I can’t wait for long nights by the fire and long days eating BBQ and playing yard games. :) Anyone else loving this Summer time gayety?
