About 4 months ago now a tornado came through our neighborhood. It was amazing all the damage that occured. We were pretty lucky and didn't loose parts of our house like some did, but we ended up with enough damage that we needed to get new siding. After a LONG process of trying to match our current siding and finding out they couldn't we ended up having to get the whole house resided. Since the whole house was going to be done we decided to take a chance and change it to a different color.
We went with a color called pecan and also put some red shakes in the peak. Now it looks a little strange at the moment because we haven't painted the garage yet and we have shutters that are coming in a few days but so far I like it. Looking at the photos I can see that the new color really is darker than the old. If is funny how in your mind you remember it is a different way. The first time I saw it I thought it didn't look too different. So now the crews work is done and ours is about to begin! I have a feeling it isn't going to be an easy job.

Hi Melyssa,
I followed this link on Tarah's blog. I thought you were a southerner because of the names beau and belle in your blog title. Ha Ha! Your house looks great. Nice to see some color-besides Minnesota beige. Welcome to blogging. You'll become addicted.Take care! Sonya
I like the new colors! The red is one of my choices too..we will have to see how it all pans out. I painted my garage doors with Valspar Exterior from Lowes it was $40 a gallon but it went on like butter...In case you needed an idea!
