It is a Mexican Fiesta!

We have dabbled a bit with some
paint colors in the house...here's
the foyer. I jokingly said to Chris
that it looked liked a "Mexican
Fiesta with the "Yellow, Red &
Green". Note to self: Keep some
of your opinions to yourself.

The paint is still there, just not
sure it is going to stay.

Venturing inside the house

Well, my Mom commented on the blog
that she wanted to see more of the inside
the house. Well, I can accommodate a
wee bit of her request (still working on
getting the house put together). Here's
a small sample to keep up your interest as
we get the house in order...


Here's a shot from the kitchen to the dining
room...

Oh, you thought just because the wall had

been painted that it was a done deal. Think

again...

Blank Canvas & Our New Friend Comes To Visit

About half of our house has white walls and
you know with an artist "In The HOUSE",
that will just not do! So, a trip to Lowes and
a quart of Valspar "Orange Toffee" comes home
with us. Here she is making the first strokes
with her brush. All smiles here, COLOR!


Throw on some classical music and you have
the composer furiously waving "it" about on
her blank canvas. Sorry, you will have to wait
until later to see the finished product.


Guess who showed up, full of energy of course.
Yes, our man "Jack". Here he is playing fetch
one of our gourds. These beautiful gourds grow
in our garden on the side of the house.


We spoke to Jack's Mom the other day, Jack
is not quite two years old and is a Husky/Lab
mix. And like all those around two years old,
he is a bundle of energy, but as you can see
we got him to settle down for a few minutes
for this photo.
