ma maison

pic from our backyard



"the library" the carpet doesn't match the drapes
carnations all over the carpet and monkeys and chinese men with crabs on the drapes
matching wallpaper in the powdaroom.....the walls are a lemonlime hue




billy granger just removed the wallpaper and is painting
(estimated time of completion 2010)
we've had some snow days, some rainy days, some windy days, and a couple mondays and fridays...
big patio outback with fish pond
lots of trees, it's been a winter wonderland...beautiful and quiet




big ole window over kitchen sink, window to right is along a hallway into dining room
there is a small counter and cabinet along the way which is "the bar"
along this kitchen window is a built in plant holder thing, h e r b garden, you need one joanie

more house pics

front door, notice the foyer blue paint and lots of wallpaper
eric pulled up the royal blue carpet and removed thousands of nails




living room and husband with remote
this room is light mint chocolate chip color
not too visually offensive but will be painted
we use the fireplace a lot
we no longer have taped cords running across the room and we got an oriental rug
ooo la la




holly from one of our many holly trees

bringin it back

facebook is annoying

per chuck beebe i "hacked into eric's account"
i played around and didn't really have fun
some people write really stupid things "i'm going to homegoods" "i'm at work"
"i like the warm weather"
who cares

guess it's me and you here joanie...

i think i'm gonna start with a little summary then i'll add some pictures later

well this past sunday was my 6 month wedding anniversary
i love being married, the word "wife" is still weird
and the fact that i might have to attend a jimmy buffet concert is painful but everything else is SO FUN and SO WONDERFUL all the time, it's ridiculous

we love our house
we are busy sanding, priming, and painting
goin to homo depot all the time
every wall, trim, door needs to be painted
it's a little overwhelming but we'll get there

billy granger is painting our dining room which is huge with lots of windows and doors

my brother bill painted our bedroom
RL navy blue, it's cave-like
looking for some room darkening blinds and we'll be sleepin till noon

we have a wedding in march in san antonio texas, so we're spending 2 nights there then 2 nights in austin, looking forward to a little getaway

i might go down to FL and visit my newly engaged girlfriend lynnie bateeps
sometime in march or april

whatelse...we've been goin to a lot of flyers games
cooking and eating a lot
eric made olive garden's pasta fagioli soup and we got a le creuset "dutch" oven that we're excited to use

gotta run and heat up my lunch, i'm having a hungry day

bye jojo
