Before (this color was called "Green Tea"):
We painted it "Spice," and yes, there are a few pictures on the wall:
The downstairs is pretty open, with a living/dining/kitchen combo. Here it is before:
The previous owners REALLY liked purple. Here it is now:
Much more our style, although it was incredibly difficult to paint behind the cabinets:
This is one of the bedrooms downstairs. It belonged to a teenager- this paint was named "Fuchsia Flock."
We had a difficult time painting over the brown stripe and we later learned it was magnetic. We are using this room as an office and it's still a work in progress (obviously!):
That was all the painting we did before we moved in. Still a few rooms to go! Here is the other bedroom downstairs (which is also a work in progress!):
And the hallway/vanity area. There is a bathroom, a large closet (which is storage right now) and the door on the right leads to the downstairs garage (Michael's "workshop"):
And that's the house! Now to finish decorating, ha!
We always have deer in our yard. It is not an uncommon sight, but one day this week, our neighbors filled up their deer feeder. This is what happened:
NINE deer in our yard! It was pretty neat to watch them. They definitely weren't afraid of us!
Olivia was a little under the weather last week (Michael had to pick her up from Miss Angie's house Tuesday with a 102.6 fever. I work ONE day a week and she naturally gets a fever on that day!). Her fever broke, but she still didn't feel very well and I didn't want to send her to school Thursday. So, we dropped off the cupcakes for her party and her gift for Miss Angie:
We have been very fortunate to find Miss Angie! She watches Olivia after school on the day I work. Olivia LOVES her (and her 2 daughters!). It's so nice to find someone you trust with your child.
With some school friends:
We are gearing up for Santa to visit tonight. We are heading to the Tri-Cities tomorrow, so Santa is making a special trip to our house tonight. Merry Christmas! :)
