Around the house...

Our neighbor has a rent house that is IDENTICAL to our house. It is so weird. Its the same--down to the left over wood used as shelving in the hallway closet. Anyway, she was nice enough to give us the screen door that hadn't been used in years and years. I'm so excited about this thing--when it cools off, we will be leaving the door WIDE OPEN!

We couldn't wait to start working on it. In the heat of the day we began sanding and taking the screen apart. 
Looks like we have grass!


I'll post some after shots ASAP!


Its kind of been a big week on the home front. Screen door and brick steps! My mom's guy came and bricked over our concrete stoop. We are pleased with the results! (hopefully he'll be back in the fall to do my beds!)

It really looks like fall in that photo--and my door looks turquoise!
