O.k....the lower one is the before picture and the upper ones are the *i n the midst of* pictures...I am moving the steps form the side to put them in the front where they were originally. They will be 10 ft wide...which I hope, will add presence to the entry. I will add a gravel path going over to the driveway....The lattice being blue looks much better, I think. The autumn red accent color (Behr Autumn Leaf) will be on the stairs and across the horizontal trim on the upper porch..below the roof. The white will be the vertical trim...

Now that you are updated thus far...I am going back to taping the hall to finish the faux trim...
