Hubby and I were trying to put this all together when he said Look at Wiki!!! So I did and Voila!! "In episode 22 of season 6, "The Hole in the Heart", which saw the death of "Squintern" Vincent Nigel-Murray at the hands of renegade sniper Jacob "on the loose" Broadsky, Booth has Brennan stay at his apartment for her safety. Later that night, Brennan, still overcome with shock and grief over Vincent's death, gets into bed with Booth and it is implied in the following day that they had sex. In the last scene of the season 6 finale, "The Change in the Game", after the birth of Angela and Hodgins' son, Brennan tells Booth that she is pregnant and that he is the father, making Booth overjoyed. At the start of Season 7, a very pregnant Brennan and Booth are a couple but are going back and forth between apartments. Booth suggsts that they should have their own place, whereas Brennan want Booth to move into her apartment. It causes a minor rift between them but is resolved when Booth admits why he wants to move into a new house and Brennan having some time to think over it says its a good idea because she'd need him practically, emotionally and sexually. At the end of the episode they are in bed looking at houses on the internet. Brennan also tells Booth she loves him." FWIW--I think they have ruined the show.

Thanks for all the input. In Montreal we only Have one high-end nursery that sells these and the big box stores do not. It is a plain cercis canadensis. The grower is in Ontario with perhaps a milder zone. I don't think it was dug up from the wild. This one overwintered here in our conditions at the nursery and has done beautifully in terms of flowering and health. The price therefore might reflect this. I paid 450 Canadian for a 2.5 m high one. About 325 us? Even the small ones (4 feet) were almost 200 cad. I might be ripped off but I almost don't care? Supply and demand.... I think i will go for it. If you allow me to come back and ask questions :)

Another beautiful house that fell into the gray trap. Get rid of the gray and the house will be fine. Choose one of the colors out of the bigger color scheme of littlebug. The white is too white too. A tone of light beige will accommodate the walls to the brick. A truly dark red or dark green might be nice accent colors, but don't overdo it. Maybe just the door and the swing (which can stay in my opinion, but the pillows are too modern). Besides that: do people not build and buy such houses for the 'dated' look? It is supposed to look like from another era. So do not update, but preserve the look. The rest of the house is beautiful as it is. It doesn't have to be all Tudor style, per se. Have you seen the movie 'pride or prejudice'. That house also has such a wooden railing. In my opinion your door and windows look beautiful too. Some agents of styles tend to become to stringent. So: paint will do a marvelous job on an already lovely house.

Agree with the canopy idea. I’ll be the dissenting opinion here - I say paint the brick. I’m not usually one to advocate for painting brick, but I think on smaller houses and those that are more simple it makes a much larger impact. A white brick house will always be in style - so even if the trend fades your white brick traditional home will never look dated. If you want it to look more in vogue with today’s style, I would suggest a white brick (maybe SW Alabaster) and a light griege shutter (maybe SW Ancient Marble). I know some might say that scheme is overdone (at least where I’m from), but I can’t lie - there’s something so classic and understated about it. I think it will really transform your home. That said - painted or unpainted, the house is very pretty. If you opt not to paint, you can’t go wrong with some updated landscaping and new fixtures.
