Boys Rooms


Well, we are FINALLY doing it. We cleaned out the boys bedrooms this past weekend and all their "crap" is stacked up in the dining room. Willie came over last night and started painting. The boys picked out paint on Saturday. E picked lime green and K picked a very pretty blue/green color. Then they found a Sponge Bob border and begged me for that, so I got it.


We are painting both rooms with both colors. They are going to have a bedroom and a toy room and share both. The bedroom has green on 2 walls and blue on 2 walls. We are painting the wood trim white to match the rest of the house. The toy room has the bottom half of the walls blue and the top half green with the border running in the middle. K already had a Sponge Bob room, so we have 8x10 pictures of Sponge Bob that we will hang back up in there.


Willie got the green painted last night. He is coming over tonight to paint the blue and then he will probably finish up the trim on Thursday. Vaughn is coming on Friday to pull up the carpet and put down hardwood floors. I cannot wait to see what it will look like!


I am pretty sure I have found 2 twin beds and a dresser to go in there. We probably need to get 2 good-sized rugs, as well. I think I found a couple on line that are pretty kid-like.


So by next week, they should have a new, cool bedroom.

Home Remodeling

We have started our "project"! Thanks to the Home Depot cards I got for Christmas, we have started painting the house. The dining room is almost finished. It looks INCREDIBLE! We are doing all the woodwork white and the dining room is a merlot color. It is just beautiful! I think it will be done tonight and we are starting the living room too. Jenn is at home now painting the baseboards and her uncle is coming over after work to help her and to put a coat on the living room. He says he thinks it will only take one coat! Yay! (he is a professional painter). I am so excited about the way the house is looking. The floor people are supposed to call today with the estimate for putting down wood floors in the den, living and dining. Yay!
