Picture for my front foyer

Yes, the renovation is still going on. WE have finished with the downstairs bathroom, with the exception of two custom signs from Country Workshop that are still on order. Once they are here and hung, I will get pictures up.

My current problem is what picture to hang in my entry foyer. I have narrowed it down to the following three by Jude McConkey. I don't know why they caught my eye, I don't live anywhere near these places, but I guess because I have an uncle that lives in the UP of Michigan they touch a cord with me.

So, help. I need your opinions on which one is best??? My walls are painted Adobe Beige and I have Victorian type sconces that the picture needs to fit between.





I would probably have this last one turned vinitage like the one above it.

Saturday's Adventures of Outdoor Boy

Today's adventures included a ride on the ferry, a 2.25 mile hike, and then playing on the beach at South Whidbey State Park.

The view from the Ferry was amazing on such a "blue bird" day.

This tree grove was on our hike. Wyatt was still walking at this point, but later on he decided that he had enough and wanted me to carry him on my back. Lesson learned, Wyatt is only good for about the first mile and a half.


After we got done with the hike, we had another 1/2 mile trail to get down to the beach where we ate our picnic lunch and then played in the sand. Wyatt and his friend Sam loved to build in the sand and dig up all the rocks. They didn't want to leave, but it was time to catch the ferry back home....but first we had to find some place for icecream....all that hiking deserves a reward. Would you belive that there was no place open for ice cream...I ended up at the grocery store of all places.

More Adventures of Outdoor Boy


Today finds outdoor boy exploring near the Mukilteo Lighthouse. Too bad it was closed and we could not go inside. Instead we got to walk along the beach and throw rocks into the ocean. He was quite the stinker today and would not allow me to take any full on face shots. He was much too busy throwing rocks. I must say, that he has a very good arm and looks to probably be our sports child. Only time will tell, but he was very disappointed when it was time to leave. Tomorrow we will be back down here to take the Ferry across to Whidbey Island and visit the state park there hoping to catch a glimpse of some whales.

Adventures of Outdoor Boy


So today Wyatt and I went down to my friends new bead store. Lady Lorelie's is right along Lake Union and has the most amazing view out the back patio. This picture was taken from there. As soon as we started over the bridge at he could see the water and the boats all Wyatt was says was "I go boat!!". He was so excited to be able to walk down the docks and look at each of the boats. He really liked the ones with flags.
