More Projects

Prior to painting our bedroom I made a lovely summer wreath for our front door. Who knew I was so talented! Another project that we took on was landscaping the front of our house. We planted some hostas, hydrangea bushes, salavia, evergreen trees, and of course petunias since we live on Petunia Road!

Red, Red, and More Red

After talking about it for over a year, we've finally painted our bedroom...RED! I will have to admit that I was a bit leary about should a bold color, but I love it. I think "posh red" is the perfect shade - not to bright, not too dark, and not too pink. However, as much as I love the color, if you ask me if I plan on painting another room red, the answer is NO! What a pain red can be! Talk about a week long project. One coat of primer and THREE, yes THREE, solid coats of red paint. Oh well, Josh and I both love the end result and I can check that off my list of things to do this summer.


Because of the lighting in the room, the picture towards the window looks dark and the one away from the window looks bright...but you get the idea!

The First Post

This is my first post! I've been playing around trying to figure everything out. I'm thinking this might be a little more grown up than myspace. Or maybe not, who am I kidding! It's kind of entertaining to say whatever I want and talk to whoever wants to listen. Yay for me who likes to talk!

So, for those of you who don't know, Josh and I were married on December 10, 2005 in Newark, Delaware. Here's one of my favorite wedding pictures - our first dance as hubby and wifey.
After living with just the two of us for a few short months, I convinced Josh to get a kitten, and as you now know, I came home with TWO kitties! They have to have someone to play with when we're at work and who better than your own sister! So here are Annabelle and Zoey showing how happy they are to be saved from the S.P.C.A. together.
