Because We Needed One More Project...


My husband is a do-it-yourselfer. I love this about him. Most of the time. :) But just now we have at least three unfinished outdoor projects. So when Aaron mentioned that he wanted to start building a shed as well, I started thinking up a plan to convince him, just this one time, to buy one instead of trying to design and build one himself. Costco came to my rescue with their coupon for $300 off this pre-made shed. All the pieces are there, you just have to put it together. And since it was on sale, Aaron was in. :)

The shed was delivered this afternoon. And of course by the time Aaron got off work, we ate dinner, and put kids to bed, it was dark out. Thus began yet another night time outdoor project. Yes ladies and gentleman, the Swans dig sprinkler trenches, plant trees, build fire pits, lay sod, and now build sheds in the middle of the night. I'm positive our neighbors think we're the strangest family on the block. But hey, we get 'er done...err almost. :)

*FYI our shed was not a one night project, even with Ryan and Melissa's help. So that makes at least 4 unfinished projects going on simultaneously in our yard. You'd think we'd figure out how to finish one thing and move on to the next, but no.
