What's Happening in Boulder County!
In our hunt for summer fun for the kiddos, we found more than enough for everyone at Wow Children’s Museum in Lafayette.

HGTV offers 10 tips to make your home just a little more inviting to potential home buyers. With these quick and (mostly) inexpensive fixes, your home is likelier to sell when you need it to.
Outside: Buy a new “Welcome” mat, replace faded house numbers and spruce up the landscaping.
Inside: Clean until everything sparkles, from floor to ceiling fans. Clean off those counters and put out fresh flowers.
Good luck! And be sure to give me a call if you need a contractor to help you with those repairs.
