Siding a Go-Go

Despite my boys working on "other folks" jobs.

Siding is going up with vengeance.

All the windows have been installed.

David spent a week getting our window trim just right.

He tried three different window trim schemes, 'God Bless Him' as they say.

Finally I was satisfied.

No wonder I love him so much.

I love the trim on the windows.

He hand made it all out of steel.

Over our Memorial Day weekend trip to Gaylord, we picked two different paint samples to test.

Behr paint.....new khaki & jungle khaki. One more yellow, the other more green.

After two days of looking, we both agreed.

We hate them both!

We need a more grayish, more sandstone color, but dark enough for the white trim to really pop.

I didn't think a paint color would be this hard.

But there are lots of surprises in this adventure.

We did finally pick an exterior door design.

So, while we were away, we also bought two exterior doors for the front of the house.

While the door design has been chosen, we are still in discussion on the door color.

Color choices...... our varying tastes could cause problems.

Other news....the two bathrooms on the second floor now have plumbing 'main lines' run to them.

Our Master Bathroom has also lost it's current walls,

making room for a slightly bigger Master Bathroom.

While it's not ideal for a Master Bathroom, we should be able to step out of each other's way.

Which is huge improvement to only being able to have one person at a time in the Master Bath.

On the positive end of things......

Now that the big cedar tree is cut down, the view from my bedroom is alright.

I'm a pretty lucky girl to have such a boy.

A boy who does all he can to make me happy.
