Busy, busy, busy!

Lots of changes.  Lisa and the kids came over and Lisa gave me a lesson in pruning.  The Cherry tree looks WAY BETTER!  If that wasn't enough, they came back the next day and landscaped the front yard!  Thanks Lise, it looks great and was nice having company!
Jeff and I painted the exterior trim black, which looked very purple at first.  I was more than a little concerned but it darkened up to a warm black that looks really good with the sundered tomato front door.  Also got rid of the mis matched handle and dead bolt set (1 brass the other chrome) and replaced it with a brushed nickel handle with rectangle mounts to match the panels in the door.
Jeffs been busily framing out the laundry room, getting the ensuite ready to be re configured and working with Chris (a friend) on the plumbing.
Lots more to do!
The boys get back tomorrow so I'm thinking we will tag team the deck as the weather is nice and they love to paint.  Yes, it will be messy! :)
