Deck renewal

Getting ready

Changes at Apple Hill

Changes 2020

The house gets a new paint. The color we chosen by hubby. I would have preferred the old color green well, avocado shade of some sort but hubby wants to be different from the neighbors and lo and behold now it stands out!

Home sweet home

Removal and replacement of the Hot Tub

The hot tub was so damaged that it needs to be changed. Hubby miscalculated the height of the tub and it would not get through the gate. The only alternative was to pass it over the garage which enraged him but that is the only way A monstrous crane was hired and there goes the tub to it's destination. Success!

Labor Day weekend in California

Snow in Colorado

It is a 20 minutes after 4pm sitting at work's lunch room waiting for hubby to come pick me up. It has been snowing a lot and we have been riding together since we have only one 4 wheel drive SUV. I need my own!

Changes in early 2013

It has been a year that I have not posted anything. There are few reasons why. a-My computer have been acting up and not allowing me to upload photos.  b- I have been working a lot and weekends have been too busy with shores and helping hubby with his projects. Below are few of the changes/upgrades we have done at the beginning of the year.

 

The front door used to be burgundy. I like burgundy but since we painted the house it didn't seem to be right anymore so, I painted it white. I like it better.

 

 

 

 The window garden by the sink have been a problem. There is too much sun on summer that it killed my plants, the sun is on your face in the morning, and at one time almost melted a plastic jug in the sink. I have planned of making London shade to ease the sun and heat but trying to find the right rod and to attach to the metal seem impossible. I am not a seamstress but I know a little about sewing. Bought books to get ideas and maybe a pattern. So one morning while hubby and I were having breakfast, we were talking about the shade and my problem on how to attach the rod. I mentioned about wanting shutters instead. Hubby agreed and so I went in town - Placerville to go and check the shutters. Three months later we got the shutters on the window garden and the window by the table.

 Hubby's project was to paint the inside walls of the garage including the floor. As you can see it seem so clean and so organized.
