Paint!!!
Ok, the story goes like this...the paint guy gives me an estimate on Monday and says his guys will be here on Saturday. We wait alllllllllll day Saturday and the guys are a no-show! I am beyond annoyed about it and finally get a hold of the paint guy on Sunday evening. So, they come first thing Monday morning...thankfully.
And here are the before and after shots:
Shelly's room before with her four paint colors on the walls:
After is all pink:
Our bedroom with its not so pretty green walls...ok, I admit this was not my best color choice:
And now, a calm and warm autumn wheat:
The master bathroom with the builder beige walls:
Now the master bathroom is a deeper taupe than the original beige (a little tricky to see in the photo):
The girls play area/hangout spot...another not so great wall color that I chose:
From orange to a calm and light pink:
More photos after the rooms are set up and back in one piece.

Cheering
Monday morning my happy cheerleader was up early and ready to go off to cheer leading camp!!!
Her sister joined us for the drive to the camp.
The high school cheerleaders helped the younger girls with their cheers, dance, and stunts.
The tall blonde was the little blondes "temporary" cheer leading big sister. Shelly's permanent cheering sister was away at another camp.
Waiting with Morgan to perform her stunt.
Cheer buddies!!!
Shelly loved the cheering camp and is eager to attend another week long cheering camp this summer.

My Model
In an attempt to figure out how to better use my new camera, I asked Shelly to help me with some evening photography. She was a bit of a reluctant subject. But, still a cute one!
And, Daisy looked out through the kitchen door while we snapped the photos. I think she wanted in on the action.

Bow Time
Shelly was dying to do a little craft. So, after seeing this video, she decided we needed to make these.
Well, we did. It took her mother awhile to figure out exactly how to sew the snaps on, but after about 3 tries, I was successful.
Here is the finished product:

Fun 4th
It's another year of 4th of July photos (click to view past photos of the 4th). This year the venue changed to our neighborhood pool. The host and hostess of the yearly 4th party had been away for 10 days so they decided to make a change and head to the pool for all of the fun.
