After the kids go to bed

We bought a canopy for the patio. I love it! I was worried it might be too dark and darken the living room inside, but we put it in one corner and it doesn't affect the light in the living room at all. Also, no more carrying in the pillows in case it rains:) The picture was taken in the evening, after the kids had fallen asleep...

PS. I'm trying to get better about updating my blog. I figure even if no one reads it, its a good place to keep a sort of diary of events/thoughts/feelings etc.
