Weekend Update

About a month ago, an overzealous couple opted to take advantage of some unseasonably warm weather and put out their patio furniture, umbrella included.  Then that crazy bast*ard we call 'St. Louis' decided to drop a nice winter storm into the mix about a week afterwards. The patio umbrella did not survive. Enter our new friend, 'Sam's Club' who happened to have one umbrella in stock and on sale.....that one umbrella was begging to be picked up as it matched our patio furniture perfectly. Enter this weekend and the beautiful weather we had that begged for the umbrella to go back up so the Stiffs could enjoy the back patio.

Naturally, Ryan was right there to help dad....

No comments from the peanut gallery on the state of the plants on the table....we had a big storm and I forgot to bring them in, surely it wasn't my lack of nurturing that killed those pups.
