Paint!

After talking about painting the house for well over a year, it's done! It looks awesome and was well worth every penny! We ended up paying someone to do it instead of trying to tackle it ourselves. I'm glad we did--they were able to power wash the house, caulk the rough spots, sand and prepare the wood. They did a great job! It's hard to tell by the pictures, but we picked out a new color. It used to be tan/brown with a dark brown trim...you can kind of tell in this picture from last summer.



Now it's a green/khaki color with even darker brown trim. They painted everything so nicely we really want to get new windows so the whole house looks nice! We also need to work on landscaping & our lawn, as you can tell from this picture! All in due time...

Sarah,

The house is looking AMAZING! It's been so great keeping up with all the projects on your blog. You've put so much blood, sweat and tears into it. It's really becoming an awesome house. Great work!

Sarah, you are pimping that house out. Your lawn just needs a little Revive and Scotts fertilizer and you'll be mowing until the second coming!
