It's been weird around here, kinda busy, kinda not, but still feeling not-quite-put-together but with definite progress made. I think thats the best way I can describe it. I finally decided on a paint color....and here's the kicker, its the
same color that is essentially all over the house. I just had to make a decision, it was getting more than a little ridiculous. I know how the color looks with the dark wood and in the rest of the house so...I went for it. I've been painting for 2 days now and I'm still not done. I'm sure it will need another coat, so theres that, sigh. BUT it looks leaps and bounds better than the past 2 paint attempts which my poor mother in law had to endure (sorry Kemi!). Kemi is a
way better painter than I am so, sadly some of my moldings have taken a beating...sad. Anyhoo, the house is in shambles b/c all the furniture is moved to the middle of the room and there are drop clothes on the floor, etc. All that to say, I do feel like progress is being made but alas, no pictures to show and it still won't be done for a while. But its coming!!
I also finally ordered our new bed (who hoo!) and our new couch (that I ordered weeks and weeks ago) should be arriving any day now. We still haven't picked out a mattress but I haven't really felt a strong need since the bed isn't even here yet. Its all coming together!
Adam, B and I went to our first Baylor Bears football game! Texans
love their football of course and the green and gold was out in full force (and cowboy boots)! It was BLAZING hot and we were in direct sunlight so B and I didn't last too long. We did manage to get long yummy corn dogs, popcorn and see the Bears first touchdown, so not a total loss! Sic 'em bears! (I like living in a college town, I think its fun). :)
I hope you all had a nice Labor Day, I did! I worked the whole day and loved every second of it! I love my job, and since I've been on a bit of a hiatus for the past few weeks it was great to be out shooting again. Here is a sneak peek at this adorable senior, more photos coming very soon. Happy Tuesday, all! xo

WOWZA! She is GORGEOUS and so are these two images! I know you love shooting seniors and it shows.
I am so impressed that you are tackling that paint job!!! Those rooms are difficult and time consuming even for an experienced painter. I'm thrilled that you like the color! I do wish I could lend you a hand.
Beautiful pictures -- so excited to see more!
