Ever since the hubby and I talked about getting our own house, I’ve been thinking about getting teak patio furniture to go with my Japanese style garden.  Having grown up in Melbourne where gardens are such a large part of what makes up a home, I can’t imagine Gavin growing up in a home without a garden.  In my younger days, I have always felt that when I had kids, I would love a house with a garden that my kids could run around and play in just like the one I had when I was growing up.

Over the past few weekends, we’ve been checking out display homes for ideas.  I like the idea of getting teak outdoor furniture because I like the wood finish and teak is hardy enough to withstand the humid tropical elements in this part of the world. 

My ideal garden would be one with a cubby house for my kids to play in while I lounged on our teak furniture and read a book or worked from my laptop on the patio.  That way I could keep an eye on the kids while catching up on some reading, emails or blogging at the same time.  Now that’s the life!
