I was shopping at Trader Joes and a young twenty something store employee stopped me, "Mam", she said, (Mam?? is she really talking to me? mam??) "where did you get your cardigan?" (now that's more like it) "LOFT" I answer. And she stares blankly--"you know, Ann Taylor's LOFT?" Still blank. So I instruct her where to find a store, and move along. So I have found my niche-my choice of caridigan color-still cool, my choice of store to purchase it at--only cool to those of us "Mams".

True Colors
More awards to give out
Cami--Painting even though I told her she only had to keep me company
Darcy--for again coming to my aid and painting the areas I could not reach
Here ares some sneak peaks at the colors in my house
the front room:
My bedroom in process (That is my sister in the photo--she and her family get an award too. She is a task master)
Play room. With three little girls there has to be pink walls somewhere. I chose a paint swatch and picked four colors from it from darkest to lightest. Each wall progressively gets lighter
These walls are two different colors but it's difficult to see
The girl's room. The color is much richer and more vivid in real life. This picture doesn't do it justice
A shout out to Sherwin Williams. I love their paint buckets that are easy to shake and pour. And you can test any color you want for $5. Most places have some paint you can test, but only certain colors. Sherwinn Williams will mix any color they have for $5. It rocks.

oooooh.....the excitement of seeing your house! I am loving all the colors and can't wait to see the pictures of you all moved into YOUR house!!!!
Wow. Those colors are awesome. I wanted to do that green you have in your front room and I was too scared. Now that I see it, I wish I had. Someday!
Everything looks great, and I can't wait to see it when you are finished.
love the colors! totally love the blue/aqua girls room and the pink playroom! they are all so nice and bright!
I love it! That green I wanted soooo bad, in fact it started out in the bathroom, but didn't work with the floor, so I am saving it for my girls room. THe color in your girls room looks like the color in my kitchen. I can't wait to come and see it all in real life!
