You know how a fresh coat of paint can give life to a dull and dark room?
We are totally rocking the fresh coat here in our little household!
After a near disastrous DYI hair dying experience in college (think the most bleached blond you have ever seen... that was me x10) I swore off hair dye from a box forever until yesterday. I decided to try and save a bit of money and give my faded summer-kissed highlighted head a warm and darker look for fall. It went off without a hitch and now I'm sporting a fresh coat!
I was acting silly and Ben captured it.
Sadly this was the best picture out of the 20 he took so you get to see the real crazy me.
I rearranged our front room this weekend. I moved furniture around and made a picture wall that I'm in love with. Oh, and this wall is ACTUALLY going to be getting a fresh coat of paint this fall. The paint shade of hot coco will soon be covering these walls. How warm and cozy does that sound?!
I'm noticing a few a little crocked ::off to straighten pictures::
Mr. Drake has been fighting off an ear infection and high fever since Wednesday. I think last night was the turning point and my little guy is back to his fun and energetic self. He has been roaring like crazy again (he might think he is a lion) and climbing on everything in sight! He has a fresh coat of energy and health!

I'm seriously thinking of giving this blog a fresh coat by doing a redesign and making the hop over to Wordpress. I would have to hire somebody to help me with all the tech stuff. Any advice on who to hire?
Ben started his new job last week and it is a total fresh coat for him .He is in a job he loves and is totally suited for. I'm so happy he finally found a job that fits his creative and social personality.
This fall is off to a great start with all of our fresh coats. I'm sure we will keep adding more, but for right now it feels pretty refreshing!
Do you have any fresh coats in your house?
Love the hair. Love the wall. Drake is a stud with his new haircut.
