Like laundry.......and being able to do it at your own house :D

This week we finally got a (much coveted) front loader washer!



and we put the drying line up yesterday.....oh how I missed the peacefulness of hanging clean laundry on the line......




I especially am liking the purple we chose for the posts....did you notice?

The Color of Home - Kiddo's Room

Taken early this morning, while he was still in dreamland ;)

I never thought I would paint my boy's room blue.....but it matched his recycled denim quilt so well. I even made the quilt years before he was born (so I didn't know he would be a boy!). I pieced it together by hand while we lived in NYC (no machine then), with blue jeans collected from our stash and friends! ....aaaand I even took it while we traveled, that quilt has been to Brazil, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, and Mexico! toot-toot!

So blue it was!



The painting is a piece by his big cousin Patience when she was only 9 :) and the records painted one fall afternoon with his daddio!





It is quite a peaceful blue, don't you think?
