painting my new studio - before

what a mess
I have been going non-stop this weekend. I painted the main room when you enter our home, it was traditionally a living room, open with the kitchen, with a long hallway on one end leading to bedrooms and a bathroom, and a hall with the laundry room on the other side of the room, leading to our bedroom. I painted the space orange and yellow when we first moved back in (that was around 2011.) I liked it then but man it had worn out it's welcome with me. I went with a fresh minty green, its a very light shade, with all white trim. 

The pictures don't do it justice, and I still have a lot of work to do setting everything back up. 
I think I really like it, though.

Before pictures:


old windows - what to do with this space.... i have lots of ideas
gross yellow walls (notice the old fan...)
always a messy painter
the other walls were orange / coral, also very ugly
You will have to come back to see the after pictures!

Until next time,

Justin and Savannah's Wedding - The Reception

The ceremony was simple and sweet, and the reception was the perfect party. A band on the porch, delicious food and drinks, cake and dancing. It was an epic night for everyone involved.   Until next time, Angela Kelly

puppy play date

Yesterday Trilli got to have a puppy play date with her best friend, Oreo, and a new boyfriend, Yeti. Everyone in our group has a dog or two, so socializing them is essential. With several large breeds covered in our pack, they can be a bit much at first. Oreo (the pit bull) is quick like lighting, nudging the others with her nose and batting her paws. Trilli (husky and lab) loves to play but has the biggest mouth, constantly barking. We're working on that. Yeti is a basset hound and great Pyrenees mix, still growing and just beautiful. He got along with the girls wonderfully, outside taking turns pouncing on each of them. It's great to watch a pack of dogs together, it's so natural for them, their own kind; friends.  Hopefully next time I'll remember to bring my camera! Until next time, Angela Kelly

the dogs of luna acres - always ready to go

Our little farm is quite over run with animals, although most of them not the working farm type. The three dogs take turns guarding the place and sleeping on the couch. They all have their flaws and strengths, but not one of them what most would consider "well trained". We love them all the same, we know it our own fault for not working harder for them. We are blessed with space for them to run relatively free on their own. The yard this time of year is littered with deer legs and bones, the occasional head or spinal cord. It's a good life for these dogs.  Trilli and Dakota ready to go Dakota eating the snow Bandit, the oldest pup, is still always ready for a walk, even if he doesn't make it all the way there the view this afternoon  It's funny, even with all the freedom, they are always ready to go for a walk.
