I started out a couple of weeks ago by painting the ugly glossy forest green door this fun barn red and from there I was pretty much unstoppable, as I’m sure you’ll be able to tell..

Right out from underneath me and my beloved blog.. Now it’s still a big ol’ mess back there, but it’s definitely not as ridiculous as having just the two bottom steps and then nothing.. Our house had this big long giant humongous ramp across the entire back of the house.He’s been working at tearing that down to make room for a big ground level patio.

At the time I took these photos, at least that little project was still half-done..He went and finished tearing that down too!He even re-used the ramp wood for most parts of the stairs so they’re all perfectly aged like they’ve been there forever.. It’s looking less hilarious and more presentable back here by the second!

Now where’s the funny story in that?.Blink too long and all that horrible lattice will be gone too.. Oh, don’t worry though.

It’s still pretty much a giant mess back there.. And there are plenty more good stories hiding in that mess there, I’m sure!So you’re going to think I’m a special kind of ignorant after this.

Does the United States have boxing day?The sun set a little further and I took some photos of these strangers throwing rocks..

I guess I’m the weirdo who does stuff like that now!.Kennedy got bored of course, because she’s 7 now and thinks that’s cool.

I told her to take some pictures so she found an old cup to take a picture of.Isn’t she artsy?.
