Ivy's floor....still working

At some point we will put new wide trim around the floor.  Maybe when we do new windows in here???  I wanted to pain these floors white,  but hubby said NO WHITE!  So I made him pick the color.  Its a nice muted brown...

This is Valspar concrete paint in satin sand.  I think we'll love it!

Cool in the summer, cold in the winter :),  but that's what rugs are for.  Ewe the carpet was nasty! Now I am off to wash windows and whip up some white cotton curtains???  Tomorrow we will move things back in.

hot dry july days.....

Ivy had a birthday!  Now she is 10! (This is her new friend Rose, another 4th grader!)

We are busy with 4-H projects, this is a photography shot of Ivy's.  Isn't this a cute little thing? Love this shot!

Been wanting to do a post threatening all the custom farmers in the world with this tractor!

Ivy is going to take cow pictures throughout the day to evaluate the lighting.  These cows are supermodels.

And there she is, fixin to charge!

This is what I have been working on....a sneak peak.

And another sneak peak.  Oh I can't wait till this is done!
