We have been painting up a storm...

The reason we have been working so hard on the house is because Mike starts his new job on Monday. YEAH!! Not that i haven't enjoyed him home (most of the time), but with him working a full time job & his commute an hour each way he won't get much done here. So I told him i wanted the bigger jobs on the house (that i can't do) done. I have been painting inside and he has been painting outside (I'll post pictures of the outside in the next post)

The first picture is the hallway that was the top pink, half the bottom yellow and the other half gray. (apt B) I decided to paint the hallways and door frames the same for the entire downstairs. The walls are a light brown/tan and the frames are a dark brown with a hint of green. The second picture is Mike trying to fix a crack in the wall. The third is Brandon holding Lola in the finished hallway. The fourth is the other hallway (apt A) before and the fifth is Isabelle (& Brandon) showing off mommy's paint job. The next 3 are the before and not done of the hallway to the dining room. The last picture is the wall that Mike replaced last week (to the half bath & pantry).

I'm so tired but tomorrow i am starting on the formal living room. All the furniture gets moved out so i can paint walls & trim around windows. Mike get to finally install the ceiling that I stained last summer. After I'm done with the living room I'm moving on to the library.

Yes the kids have finally been helping with not to much complaining...lol Let me get the pictures uploaded of the outside paining....
