Right now all Americans are joining together to cheer for out Team USA in the Summer Olympics. I LOVE the summer Olympics. There are always contestants that capture my heart. I love the participants who share their story of dreaming and hard work that got them where they are today!

I am sad that this year I can not have an Olympic Viewing Party as I have in the past. This summer we are dealing with all the crazy house repairs and having company over is not possible. the house is a disaster! I am sitting here right now watching the Olympics almost in tears because I am not sharing it with anyone. I do have the kids watching it with me.

 I have decided when we get back in the house and it is all put back together I want to have LOTS of parties! The Olympics may be over but there will be more things to celebrate.  I will be so thrilled to show off our new house and all the tears and hard work that went into it. But there is a major problem. The inside will look wonderful but our outdoor space is so sad. Here is our back yard.

Isn’t it horrible? There is no outdoor furniture other than an old chair laying on it’s side  My outdoor decor  consists of those 3 super sad lanterns hanging from the tree.  There is basically no patio. Doesn’t it make you want to cry?  Before I can plan the parties I will have when we are back in the house I need to address this huge issue. Shopping makes me smile so that is what I am going to do while I sit here so sad, Since I can not purchase or set up anything right now I will do some online dreaming and planning. I wanted to take you on this daydream with me.
Thanks to Sears Shop Your Way rewards I have become a huge fan of Sears online shopping. I love earning rewards and cash for shopping! Who doesn’t? So I started on the Sears Outdoor Living Catalog. I have heard about the #SummerWithSears deals and decor but it is awesome seeing it for myself!

Check out these sweet deals that caught my attention:

  • 30% off all Patio furniture and decor
  • FREE in-store assembly on all gas grills
YEAH!Even when I am dreaming I look for a bargain.  Now it is time to shop! I took a quiz on the Sears Style Hub that helped me determine I have a Country Style.
It was so much fun shopping! Look at this beautiful set and it is on sale!
Here are the items I would love to have. I made a collage using Polyvore to see how they look together.

That was seriously like magic! I am not sad anymore! An hour sitting here in my comfy chair, watching the Olympics and browsing the Sears site has me all giddy. I can not wait to get back in the house and go purchase all or some of these items. I am going to throw the best party ever and I will have a fabulous outdoor space to do it in!

  1. I love the red and yellow combination! And I’m glad you found a happy place to relax. I know you’ve been going through a tough time and it is just wonderful when you can just drift away like this. Sears has the most amazing outdoor living selection. I can’t wait until we can get back into a house on the island!
