So many changes!!

We have been making a lot of changes here at the house! It's a lot to take in and hopefully we will love the changes once we get used to them.

First we painted the house and the Michael felt that we had to much white and he wanted to add some color. So...I had the responsibility of picking out a color for the trim of the house. We went with a green because we have a fairly new green storm door.

The first green we picked was called Key Largo...I came home from work and freaked out and had the painter stop painting...the house looked like it belonged on the beach down in Key Largo!! So I had to pick another color that was two shades darker called Pinehurst...the trim is done and Michael doesn’t' like the color. I tried to get his opinion before we switched and he said that he wasn't good with color--he should have spoken up when he had the chance.

We now have a white house with green trim--it is growing on me--take a look:




The next thing we did was get three HUGE white fur trees. There is a tree company down the side street next to our house and I guess that they got sick of looking at our poor dead blue spruce that was a fire waiting to happen in our yard--here are a couple of pictures of our empty yard:






Now for the after photos:




I think that they will look great once they start to fill in and they will definatly look great at Christmas--we will have a lot of decorating to do this year!!

How cool! I see my squish in your picture where they are all laid out on your table. I'm in your YahooDTC group and am just looking at everyone's blogs.
