We are back from Camp July, and the house is painted!

Camp July Denver, 2012, was so much fun. It was a well deserved vacation with lots of swimming, shopping, cooking, drinking, swearing, all that good Camp July stuff. Hopefully it won’t take me a YEAR to post the photos! We even got a taste of the Rockies! So beautiful, and adventurous. Photos soon I promise.

Anyways, back to the house.
I know, crappy iphone photo, but IT MAKES ME HAPPY:

If you had told me this would be my kids room, even a couple months ago, I wouldn’t have believed you. It’s just exactly what I wanted. When does that happen?! (Thank you, Honey!!) Apparently it happens 7 years after you move in. The floors were literally giving us splinters, and once the floors were done, (during Marie & Alex’s Wedding!?!?) well then we could not let the opportunity pass to paint. Our stuff is all helter-skelter around the garage, and downstairs. Oscar and Lucy are sleeping in the mud room. The Piano is in the Kitchen!

I hope to to a “before and after” post with lots of photos.
But before that can happen I have Soooooooo much work to do! Happily, it’s all good stuff, and maybe we can lighten our load. Too many things have gotten oppressive! Salvation Army, here we come.

I feel like I should mention Oscar & Lucy, as this is their blog. Oscar knows everything and wants to play video games all day. Yawn.
Lucy (a.k.a. The Kraken) is asking to go to Laurel Hill every 30 minutes. She’s ready. I keep trying to explain how much summer we still have! Camping, Disneyland, and breaking news, Fiona is coming to town! Lots of cousins are in the kids’ future. :)

Ok, signing off from my folding table. (jiggle jiggle)
