our little adventures in happiness: things that bring joy

things that bring joy - day 6

Mirabelle brings me joy. Especially with her new "face lift." All of the woodwork on her trim has been replaced. The gutters are fixed. She has a new sidewalk. Her porch steps are freshly painted. Azaleas and hostas have replaced the old cedar trees that once lived in the flower beds. Her porch has been swept, her windows washed. She's ready for fall. And a few mums - coming this week.

If you missed the post last fall about how Mirabelle's exterior has evolved since we bought her, you can click here to see more.
