Summer Fun in Your Own Backyard

During the warm summer months, many families take advantage of the time off from school to take a vacation to someplace far away. While there are many good reasons to get away from home and see more of the world during the summer, there are also plenty of opportunities for summer fun in your own backyard. With a relatively small investment and some pre-planning, you can arrange fun activities for your family in your own backyard and forge lifelong memories.

1. Install a Pool


Why make a trek to the community center when you can have a private pool in your own backyard? Above-ground pools Pittsburgh area have several advantages over the in-ground variety in terms of lower upfront costs and easy installation. For safety's sake, some models also include locking gate options and built-in fencing.


2. Put on a Show

Homegrown theatricals are a great way to encourage imaginative play. To give the proceedings the feeling of a grown-up stage performance, you can construct a simple stage in the backyard complete with moveable curtains.

3. Enjoy a Fire Pit

You can install a fire pit directly into the ground or purchase a freestanding model. Either way, you can enjoy a campfire night, complete with songs, stories, and home-toasted marshmallows, any time you want. Just check the local ordinances first to ensure a home fire pit is legal.

4. Sleep Out Under the Stars

Every child should experience an adventure like this at least once in his or her life, and the best part is that it costs virtually nothing. All you need is a tarp and some sleeping bags or bedrolls; a tent is optional. Be sure to check the weather forecast beforehand.

5. Have a Scavenger Hunt

Scavenger hunts are fun for everyone. Your kids will have a blast searching for hidden treasures, and you'll enjoy yourself while thinking up clues and searching out hiding places.
Vacation trips are fine, but you shouldn't spend the whole summer away from home. The memories you make with your family in your own backyard this summer can endure forever.

Vacation No More?

Multi-tasking is real. I was even confused on what to do first LOL! Well, this is one of the disadvantages of being "jack of all trades" in our school- You will be delegated with, well, superb assignments- something like nerve cracking, mind-boggling tasks! Oops I am not complaining! It's an honor actually that out of handful of teachers present in our school, I am among those "trusted buddy".

Bring Sophistication to Your Yard

There are all types of homeowners in this world and from this diversity, you get many different types of yards. For the lazy, the yard may be a dead space. The yard is brown, the plants are dead and hardscaping is non-existent. Many homeowners are average. They create a decent outdoor space and call their yard, “good enough.” Some homeowners, though, want the extraordinary. They want things to stand out. For those wanting to create a stand-out yard, here are some suggestions.

Artistic Metalwork

For decades, art has mostly been focused on the inside. You have beautiful paintings, exquisite sculptures and amazing glass and ceramics. There is a growing movement, however, to bring art to the outdoors. Doesn’t your yard deserve to be a showcase for artwork as well? A great example of this is with corten steel gates. Beautiful metal-worked gates and screens can elevate your outdoor living space and show an artistic and elegant touch.

Thoughtful Landscaping

Interior decorators have been around for many years. They tour your home, look at the space and check out the lighting. Based on what they find, they design color schemes for walls, pick the furniture for rooms and choose decorations for walls and shelves. An exterior decorator does the same. They visit your yard and look at the trees and light. They check out the contours of your yard. Based on what they find, they come up with a design for landscaping and hardscaping to make your yard stand out.

Outdoor Décor

Part of an exterior designer’s job, as mentioned above, is hardscaping. Hardscaping is everything not related to landscape. Things like outdoor furniture, exterior decorations, paths and water features. They will design elements that complement your landscaping and ensure that everything looks like it was master-planned.
As you work on your yard, if you want to achieve a level of class and sophistication most homeowners never aspire to, try one of these suggestions.

A Mother's Duty

Among my three adorable kids, it's my youngest one that needs more attention. My youngest is a girl who doesn't eat much but she's pretty chubby (thanks to her milk). At her age now which is 2 and a half year, she is still babbling with words. She can't even utter the word "Mama". Lucky for her Aunt (the one who babysit her) because she can mention the word "Tita". But she already knew her alphabet and numbers (thanks to educational videos- her daytime habit).

As a Mom, I have so many flaws. I'm too busy with my work that I only have less quality time with my kids. I really tried to make up with them during weekend but sometimes, even my weekend isn't "mine" anymore, I can blame it to "jury duty" thing. Besides, I'm left with no option if my service is needed in my line of duty, I have to comply, it's my bread and butter after all.

However, my kids have their way of getting my attention- and that is getting sick. Nope, it's just my opinion but seriously, I'm at the hospital right now while writing thus blog.

Mother's Duty, indeed
