Can you guess what I've been doing this week? I spent much of the day yesterday while the kids were at school painting the outside of the house white. Then today I pulled down all of the old paint from the garage that we had used to paint our house various colors over the last 3 years. I gave the kids a few sections of the inside of the house to decorate and they got busy. I was so pleased with how their painting turned out. It was a fun morning and in the middle of it I thought, "This is one of those days I'll remember forever." When the kids went down for nap I finished out the white painting and started working on the trim. I love the way the green trim looks. When I was painting it I kept thinking about the house in Anne of Green Gables. That gave me warm fuzzy feelings.
