And budget your own time

Very important. too, are
outdoor living areas, which
continue to grow in popular
ity. These should be fun for

When the children outgrow
the sand box, other play areas
should replace it.
Some time can be spent out
doors almost all year long. If
possible, plan outdoor areas
suitable for summing, others
for relaxing In the shade, and
sheltered areas where brisk
fall days can be enjoyed.
Gardens should look lovely
the year round. Evergreens,
and beautifully shaped trees
such as the dogwood. help
achieve this.
