Before & After -- We're FINALLY Done Painting! (The House)

We've been trying to get the house painted all summer. Tony had to do some repairs to the sofit before we painted. We finally got to start painting on Labor Day weekend! We were able to get three sides painted with two coats in three days. I worked on part of the back side the following week and we finally finished the new house color on September 12. Then I started working on the trim. With the rain and my new jobs (childcare at church and a part-time work-from-home job that I'm almost done training for) I finally finished the trim yesterday! Yippee! Tony wants to do some repairs to the 2-car garage yet this fall and get it painted yet this fall, too! I don't mind painting and my guess is it will be quite easy to do since I won't have to get up on a high ladder. I will be able to do all of it myself if I have to.

BEFORE -- Notice the two-tone yellow.

AFTER -- The new color is called "Gypsy Moth" (like a cream color) and the trim is called "Toasted Wheat" (it's a medium brown). NO MORE YELLOW!
