Colorado Day Two

Grass everywhere! That's one of my favorite things about Colorado. The grass is that lush, thick, soft, and super green grass that we just don't have around these parts. My grandparents yard has plenty of that grass. Ahhh....to play outside during the summer. We loved it. It even got cold at night. Cold enough for a light jacket! Awesome! Another of my favorite things about staying at my grandparents is sleeping with the windows open. That was some good sleep!
I started taking pictures of my favorite things in my grandparents house, but I didn't get to far. Here's what I've got:
1. The awesome painted portrait of my dad in the entry way. Love it! We always laugh because they painted him with white lips. Who knows, maybe he just got done with a box of powdered donuts?
2. The beautiful ballerina pictures above the sofa in the living room. My grandma used to be quite the dancer. Her mom told me once (in her weaker state of mind) that these pictures where of my grandma, but they're not. Still cool to pretend though.
3. The tile floor in the entry way. I can't get enough of it. I just stare at it. Someday it would be so cool to have a floor like that of my own.
4. I think that lamp is really neat.
5. Love the wallpaper! That's the cool thing about their house. They haven't changed much of it at all over the past 40 or so years, and lots of it is coming back into style. I could totally do this wallpaper myself someday, just in different colors. Don't be surprised if I do. I wish I took shots of the other wallpaper in their house, like the fuzzy wallpaper in their blue bathroom, and the fruity wallpaper in their kitchen with matching curtains.

I love how Grant walks with such determination in the pictures, that lawn is amazing. Glad you took pictures of your favorite house, they are a real treasure, wish I could go see it someday. Next time take a video tour of the house. Thanks for sharing!
