A Door a Garden and Other Such Goodness

Well hi, how has your week been? Sunday evening is here once again. 

    Yesterday was a delightfully busy day around here. We spent the day working on several different projects. One of which was painting our new front door. The old door was in really poor shape, so last weekend, Luke spent Saturday putting it in and yesterday we gave it a lovely coat of blue paint to match our new roof.

Power tools are cool.

Watching Daddy work....Excited about the day when he can help!

Mid project Luke realized he needed to do a Menards run. He asked me if I wanted the doorway covered. I wasn't keen on a gapping hole in the house while he was away. Our neighbors have a giant great dane that likes to wander over, I could just imagine turning around and seeing him standing behind me...

Yesterday the paint happened. 

BLUE!

We still need to get the trim done, but it sure does look snazzy. 

In other news this week the garden is doing nicely! Baby carrots, peas, tiny peppers and cucumbers among other things. We had sakuma for supper on Wednesday with some of our freshly picked collard greens.

Giant sunflowers. Its going to be so fun when they bloom!

Nothing like a good book.
