Okay so most of you know that we missed the PA reunion and for good reason! We were renovating! yeah!!!!! I am sure you have either heard me talk about how dated our upstairs looks and how I loved the pink carpets and walls and blinds and ceiling fans!! Okay I assume you caught the sarcasm there...
We finally saved up enough to paint, put casings up and rip down that little wall that divided the front door from the living room. We also bought drapes for the dining room! We purchased the rod for the living room and have to hang it still! Although with no drapes..... we might wait!! ha ha. The living room rod was a bit expensive because the window is 11 ft across. We had to get an heirloom one that is made for older homes!! yikes..... so the drapes will wait until we can afford them!! I am going to look for fabric soon so we can get an Idea of what we want!

We also went on a holiday at a bed and breakfast in cold lake that a family we know and are related to some how down the line runs!! We seem to go there every summer and I LOVE it!! first of all the breakfasts are always amazing and the senery is second to none! There are lots of trails to walk and my favorite is the horses!! Chester and Regal!! I love to go horse back riding and its soooo nice to do that there! Next time I am going out longer though!
Because Warren and I go the kids all get rides too!! Here are a few pics from there!
Other things around the house are Tana has been trying out the toilet lately! She has pooped twice in it and then quit! I think I better get on that before she looses interest!
and our garden squash is going crazy! can't wait to eat it!! yummmmm

AWESOME! Love the new color - beats pink hands down :) Great job! I also really like the drape color in the dinningroom, your place is going to look so fab when you're done! Throw some canvases on the wall and call it a show home!
I love the color you picked for your walls! All of it is looking great so far. And the pics of the kids on the horses look good. I only wish Ethan would smile for pictures....
