New additions

First there was the new fridge. Then there was the new baby. Now, there is a new....drumroll...gas grill! We don't mean for this to detract from any of the baby excitement, but you gotta admit it is pretty exciting!

That's right, our deck isn't even finished yet (staining is 60% completed) but we're jumping the gun and going ahead and outfitting it. Does anybody want to come visit and do the staining for us? We'll bbq some meat for you...
