The front steps

I just can’t believe how crazy busy things are around here lately. Today, after I got home from the office, I tried to focus on outside. I planted all my flower seeds in the back (haven’t gotten to the front yet) and I painted the front steps. They needed it!

I’m really happy with the color I chose.

I’m thinking of painting the door the same color… hmmm.. we’ll see.

Notice how the bush is overtaking the front porch? Last year Jim hacked the poor bush so bad that my mother begged him to never “trim” the bush ever again. She said that next time it needed trimming that she would come do it. But here it is over taking the steps. (hint, hint, Mom) Jim’s threatening to trim it himself.

It’s just phenomenally amazing HOW much work the yard is! Especially when the kids are dragging their toys all over the stinking place.

    I love the color, it looks so great. I am such a wimp when it comes to picking out paint colors.
