life on the farm….

October 31, 2008

O.k., we don’t really live on the farm, but close enough! I took the kids over to this preserve yesterday to take some pics, and we also went with some family friends because they asked me to take some family photo’s of them. When i mentioned that i had a great camera but really wished i could learn to “photoshop”, my friend Sharon told me they just purchased a “Mac” computer and any “dummy” could edit the photo’s with their super easy process that only “Mac’s” have.
Well, me being the “dummy”, and having access to her computer sounded just too good to be true.

Of course, i still have a lot to learn and figure out, but I was Ecstatic, I tell you, to be able to add just a little bit of and antique look to some of the photo’s.

So, there you go, more pics of my kiddo’s, and life on the farm.

Off to Cali tomorrow for the weekend………..

Welcome. This is Lola’s room…

Here you have a sneak peek into Lola’s room. Did i ever mention in my previous posts, that the house we live in is just about 100 years old? When we moved here 16 mo ago from Colorado, i told my hubby that i wanted old and quaint. Well, it’s that for sure and a bit more.

Original hardwood floors throughout the entire house, base molding that is 16″ and crown molding in every room.

And of course, there is always a downfall to old houses as well. 2 very small bathrooms, but they each have a pedestal sink and tub. Charming for sure, but no his and her sink, no whirlpool tub. The closets are minimal, except for ours in the master. Our closet used to be the “tandem” third bedroom upstairs, but now is my dream of a walk in closet (more pics later on that, as i am still in re-do mode).

I hope you enjoyed seeing Lola’s room!

{update…. for those of you that are asking about the framed letters above her bed, those are made of old molding turned frame, and then just the letter printed out via computer in the font of your choice. I loved using a different font for each letter.} k-
