A New Look

We finally painted our front room. I've been talking about doing it practically since we moved in, but I finally picked a color and we got it done. Here are before and after pics. It's hard to tell from pictures the exact color, so I guess that just means you'll have to come visit!

Now we just have to get our things back on the walls! I think it makes it look more home-y.
What do you think of my new do? It's shorter than I was expecting, but it's pretty fun for the summer.

Signs of Summer

We had a very rainy 4th of July, so Caleb and I had to watch the parade from the Jeep. (Gabe was playing his trumpet on a float)

I know that the parade was memorable, because now days later, he'll randomly say "clowns, beep-beep, tractors, trucks, wee-oh wee-oh, horse...."

At last! We're starting to eat our vegetables!

Check out the bike we scored at a garage sale for $5. He loves his bike!

And Caleb was recently given a new trumpet - handcrafted by Daddy.

Wedding Extravaganza

To say we've been busy is an understatement. I feel like we've just finally landed back home and have been able to breathe for a couple of days. Here are some pics from our craziness:

Sara and Cody got married on Saturday. Here's a shot from the rehearsal. Aren't we lovely?

My camera's batteries died right before the wedding, so I don't have a single pic beyond this point (see Jenny's blog for better pictures).

Then on Sunday, Gabe's grandpa and Sue got married too. Must have been a good weekend for weddings. It was pretty cool to think that Caleb got to see his great-grandpa get married.

We had a lovely reception in Tom and Marilyn's backyard after the wedding. We took a minute to get a family shot since we couldn't get one at Sara's.

On to other important moments of the past week....Caleb got to meet Curious George! As soon as he walked in, he was yelling across the room "Hi! Hi! Hi!" and waving ecstatically. But when we went to get our picture taken, he seemed a little confused and slightly scared.
