Yesterday was simply a gorgeous day and so after work I headed home with the mind to do some much needed yard work after dinner...During the raking, weeding and mowing, this little guy...

TAG...YOU'RE IT!
I was tagged by Shirley over at Mrs. Hines Class for a game of Q&A for bloggers...and...since I love blogging so much and since I didn't have much else to do today (although I am at work right now, shhhhhhh don't tell anyone, LOL)...I decided to play along. Now Shirley is a great lady and has an A+ blog so I'm sure you will want to stop by her class for a visit and take a peek at her answers to the questions posted by Jen. Now then,...

A NEW RUG...
I was thumbing through the new Pottery Barn catalog a few weeks ago and came across a dining room I would LOVE to copy. I know, who wouldn't like to copy a room from Pottery Barn?

Okay, ever since we painted the landing last weekend I have been dying to get up there and spruce it up a little.

I said, "Yes, I do want to see THAT home." She said "Okay, but I need to warn you that the previous owners were VERY colorful and some of their color choices might shock you." I said, "no biggy, paint is cheap and anything can be repainted to suit us."...However I had no idea what I was in for. When I walked through the door of our home for the first time I thought, "This isn't bad. I don't know what she is talking about. Yes, this place does need a fresh coat of paint, but it's not like hideous or anything", then I turned the corner...
BTP GOT A FACELIFT
BTP got a facelift...Yes, another one!!! I know, I know, I have changed the appearance of my blog several times and it's only been running for, well let's just say it's one year blogiversary is March 15, 2012. I guess you could say I change my blog as much as I change things around at home. Just kidding! I don't change things at home this much, so why have I changed BTP so often? There is a reason to the madness...you see
