CSN Stores and Yard Work – Round 2

If you’re a long time reader of my blog you’ll remember that in the past CSN Stores has allowed me to do a giveaway.  Well, they have recently offered me the opportunity to review a product.  Awesome!  But what should I pick?  They have a TON of products on their website from dinnerware sets, to dog supplies to even garden decorations (this could come in handy with all the yard work we’re doing!). 

CSN has a variety of products at a variety of prices and I’m looking forward to doing a product review.  Stay tuned to see what I select!

So, Jeremy and I went on a little vacation last week to Las Vegas (post/recap to come soon), which is why there hasn’t been anymore yard work until this weekend.  Funny story: apparently, I’m a space cadet because when we checked out of our hotel I left our camera in the hotel room.  Well, actually, not just our camera, but also my laptop.  Well, to be honest, not just our camera and my laptop, but 4 books as well (2 which belong to the library!).  I left this all in my backpack.  On the opposite side of the bed, where I couldn’t see it.  Dumb, right?  Thankfully though I remember about an hour away from the hotel!  We called them and agreed to ship it to us, so our camera (and other items) came back into our possession yesterday, just in time so I could take pictures of the yard!

The brick work is being done this weekend.  So, projects include: raising our brick fence, building 3 planters, building the fire pit and building the step into the lower portion of the yard.  Here is the progress:

Weather tent.  Last time the yard was worked on it was a million degrees out.  This weekend, it’s rained everyday.  Go figure.
