Family Tree Re-mix

There have been several attempts at painting a family tree on the wall of our kosestua.
 But, when you can't get it "just right"

a professional must be called in.

So I called in the expert, Stephanie.

This new and improved family tree was designed and painted by

 Stephanie, who also designed my blog banner. 

You can read all about Stephanie and the banner in this post.

The NVO and I have two moms, one bonus dad, six children and six grandchildren 

(seven soon...grandchildren that is...) that are included in the tree.

Each family has it's own frame color; however, they are scattered around the tree.

It's all part of the re-mix.

The children and grandchildren live all over the USA.

My mom and bonus dad live in Norway.

I won't bore you with the family close-up or details,

but in the event that you are interested,

more details about the family are on this post.

Here are the previous efforts:

This was the first effort.

 It was somewhat acceptable but had to go bye-bye with
the room redo from this post.
(Two new little peeps have arrived since this one.)

This was the second futile attempt.

I never finished it (apple blossoms, that were intended for the branches, never made it),

but it ended up looking like a creepy Halloween branch, IMHO. haha.

So here's the final attempt once the professional was called in:

Stephanie, my artistic friend. :-)

Gotta' love that woodgrain!

Check out how the breeze from the window blows the silver leaves towards the front of the room.

Hopefully there won't be a huge gust
that blows the family away!

Have a breezy day!
