Spring is such a wonderful time of year here in Houston. We've got breeze, it's not too hot yet and the mosquitoes are NOT stalking your every move (thank goodness). It's during this time of year that I am so thankful to have such a great outdoor space. Reading, blogging, watching my little one play are all done from under my huge umbrella on the patio. If you don't have the outdoor setup of your dreams, check out some of these ideas and get it ready in time for this time, next year!
