When the weather started getting nicer some of the ladies at the office and I started talking about how nice it would be to get a picnic table with an umbrella outside. With the weather so 'spring-like' we soooo wanted to eat our lunches outside and just have a place that we could sit OUTSIDE and enjoy the weather. We told some of the 'higher ups' how nice it would be and they asked where we would put it. So, we looked around and found a small place behind the warehouse that we thought it would fit perfectly. With summer quickly approaching we sort of let the dream die and stopped talking about it. We never really PUSHED the issue with the 'higher ups'. Well the other day, Ryan , our warehouse manager, took us for a 'walk' behind the warehouse and this is what we found! We were so excited! He took a big spool used for wire as a table and had one of his helpers paint it pink and blue. It was so thoughtful of him. He even included fake grass! We ate out there once, but it was too hot today. So sad. The dream may have to wait a few months. We love it though!
