The Great Outdoors
Summer brings glorious, warm weather. What better place to eat meals then outside, right?
I believe this was Seamus' thinking when he suggested on Monday night that we eat in our back yard. I was busy making dinner and didnt recall hearing his suggestion. In fact, I went ahead and had Finn set the table thinking we'd be eating inside as we always do. As Matt was taking the food off the barbecue and I was bringing food to the table, Seamus exclaimed "I thought we were eating outside!"
In Casa McGarvey we dont have a patio or outside area to eat. In fact, we dont even have a table and chairs - a fact we are hoping to change soon. But Matt and I looked at each other and agreed it would be a nice change. After all, it was nicer outside then it was in our house. So what if we dont have a table or a designated area to eat. Instead, we got our beach chairs and sat together in the lawn with our meal. It was quick meal , but a nice one.
Maybe next time we'll eat picnic style: on a piece of fabric directly on the lawn. I think that would be kind of cool.
Happy Thursday. :)

eating outside is my favorite. we dont have a table either. we just sit like you did OR put a blanket down on the grass.
