Artichoke and Guests

Artichoke

The house has been painted!  We went with Sherwin-Williams Artichoke for the color.  I love how it looks in the shade, and we have a lot of shade.  I wish it was a tad darker when the sun is bright, but then it would be too dark in the shade...dilemnas.

I am curious how it will look when we get the shingles on.  The shingles still haven't been delivered - we special ordered to get the color we wanted.  Now we are hoping they arrive tomorrow.

Guests

We love to host guests, but we haven't invited many over for the lack of restroom facilities.  But something I am loving about country culture is that people are more likely to "drop by."  We have had some guests recently, and their kids all left in some sort of combination of wet, dirty, stinky and sticky.

So, if you don't mind gross kids, drop by anytime!
