Paint!

There is a house in our neighborhood that we've really liked since it was first built a few years ago. We always said that when the time comes to paint our house, we're going drastically different, and toward those colors. Fast forward a little bit and the painter that was painting across the street came over... I'm sure you can see where this was going. The price was right and he hit us at a good time. Let's just say that you get what you pay for and I'll NEVER make this mistake again, but in the end the house was painted the color we want and all is right in the world (even if I did make them re-paint the shutters after I HATED and I mean HATED the original color).

Before (pardon the mid-construction mess... it was the only back of the house picture I could find)

MUCH different, and much happier (even if the picture is a little dark, sorry about that!)
