I have been working on this painting for like, ever.  And now it is finally done.

This was one of those babies that I thought I got perfect, and then I thought “oh I can get that even more perfect.”  {Cough.}  Which is not quite how it worked out.  Some repainting later, and here we are.  I am rather pleased.

I finished it this morning in seventy degree sunshine on my front porch.  Total bliss.  Kids playing inside on my iPad.  Husband working on his bike in the driveway.

Neighbors chatting on porches.  Le sigh.  Total summer goodness.

The good life.

P.S. My Pinterest profile is taking on a life of its own.
