Well, we finally bit the bullet and have hired painters to paint our house. Most of you know how stubborn Brooke is when it comes to house projects and doing it himself. If he can do it (or learn to do it), he won't pay anyone! So, we evaluated several painters, got quotes, and after realizing that it would take considerable time and effort for us to do it ourselves, we decided to hire someone to paint our exterior. So, I took a few before shots...be warned they are ugly! I'm really exposing all of the flaws to the outside of our home (and most of you thought the inside was bad!). It never did look that awful from the street, but look below and you can see how really awful it is! Can't WAIT to get this place cleaned up!

Here are the color options. As you can see, most are a bit warmer than the current gray. We're going with the one second from right (Greenbriar Beige by Benjamin Moore). The shutters will be painted in a color called Dragon's Breath, also by Benjamin Moore. It's a very dark charcoal.
This is the screened porch (minus the screen). We'll be painting the frame white instead of its current shade of gray.
Peeling paint on the column at the front of the house.
