Odds and Ends

We have had a busy summer. We painted the house its a grey blue color with chocolate trim. The last picture is the before the first three afters. We planted 40+ trees, Sonya gave us a playset and we set that up in the back yard, we pulled up a bunch of half dead bushes, planted a garden started building a fire pit, fixed the sprinkler system, tried to resurrect the lawn, and put in a dog door and a temporary fence, and that is just the exterior. I want to try and take pictures every year that we are here so I can see how much the place has changed.

Colter got his Halloween costume about 6 weeks before Halloween. Since then there has rarely been a day he hasn't worn it. He is so excited for Halloween and lately he loves Superhero Squad and the Avengers.

We found out that we will be having a girl in February, so I have been painting the computer room to turn it into a nursery. This is the process.

This is my finished paint. I plan on adding fairies, butterflies, and flower to the decor before I am done.
