Busy at home

We have been doing a lot of improvements around the house. First I painted the dining room a deep purple, and put in a hard wood floor.

Before





After




Our living room light needed replaced badly for years. It was one the previous owner had made with 3 shop lights enclosed in 2x6 inch wood. When ever we needed to replace a bulb we had to set up scaffolding to change it. We finally had it replaced! The new one hangs down 12 feet so all we need now is a 14' ladder to change bulbs.

Yesterday we spent a lot of time outside again so we did some of our favorite things.








Last night we went to see Uncle Neffy (or as Malia says,Uncle Nessy )and Aunt Beth.

Julie, love the dining room! We have our "playroom" (was a formal sitting room) the same color. Looks like you've been hard at work.

You know we don't live all that far from each other. Maybe we could do a weekend get together in the fall when it's beautiful.

The dining room looks beautiful...the white crown moulding makes it pop! Love the new lighting! Sweet photos of Malia having fun outside...where my kids love to be!

Have a great day!

Blessings,
