BOO! Hello, did you miss us?

You know I dropped my camera and haven't blogged lately. I am SO TIRED OF LOOKING AT THAT STUPID BUG every time I get on here to link to all of ya'll's blogs! Time for a new post no matter now mundane it may be!!

You know, it only took me a month and a half to paint my bedroom! Ha! Here is how it turned out for those of you wondering. I like it! Looks a little dark but it doesn't bother me at all, looks very pretty especially in daylight!



I also painted these bathrooms, they were white before. I like color!

This is Charlie's bathroom, or more correctly the second bathroom. The color isn't true in the picture, it's called Pumpkin Butter and is more on the orangey side rather then yellow. It really warmed it up in there though and I love it!



This is our master bathroom, which isn't very big and I couldn't find a flattering angle to take a picture! The color is again not quite right, it's a little more limey/richer color in person and the towels are purple, I thought the looked almost navy in the shot which is all wrong. I like it, it's like an iris flower, the ones with the dark purple petals and green stems! I know, I know, OBVIOUSLY green stems but you know what I mean!


I still have several more rooms to do! It's fun having projects to keep me busy and motivated but at the same time I am anxious to be finished!

Next room on the list is for this guy...
What a sweetie!

EEEWWW!!!
This nasty dude was creeping through my garage today after I dropped Charlie off at preschool. Turns out about 2 weeks ago my neighbor was discussing their "Jerusalem cricket" they have in a jar at school and, yep, that's what it is. It's BIG! About 2 inches long and pretty fat! This is an internet picture since (sniff sniff) I dropped our digital camera (broke it) and the only pictures I have are blurry camera phone ones.


MAN! I had to do an insect collection in 8th grade and I NEVER found anything this cool!
