Today I fell in love. With a house. I named it La Petite Askew (I know it's not proper French, Alli. Hee.) The whole thing is crooked, and I LOVE IT! My mom and I day dreamed about where I would put my Steinway, and what colors I would paint the walls. Upstairs there is a loft that is a perfect reading room. It has a door to the roof with a view of Pike's peak. The best part is that this house was my daddy's project. It was sinking, so he had to raise it. It is crooked and he straightened it to the best of his ability. It is an old house downtown Colorado Springs, and I so wish I could make it my own.
Anyway, after working on cleaning it for a while, my mom took me to a nice lunch. I so love spending time with her :-).
This is the patio of the restaurant where we ate.
The spiral staircase to the reading room.
The house :-). I'll paint it white with blue trim.
My sweet mom.
My delicious Margarita.
This was a good day. Love you mom!
