painting.

last weekend my parents came to see our house and help us paint. so thankful for their help and little tips to help us along the way.

the "formal" living and dining room was a dingy green [or blue based on where you were standing]. praise the Lord for previous owners leaving their leftover paint from the other living area. we painted this entire room for free....except for the cost of primer and have enough to paint the hallway. 

double score.

the boys priming. made a huge difference.

welp, i guess i didn't get an after pic. but it looks great, trust me. i'm sure i will post lots of pictures once we get everything set up!

next up was the guest bedroom that was a little too purple for our tastes. i was way too excited to get that color outta here to take any pictures.

again, the previous owners left paint that matched the other bedroom [now justin's office] so of course we were going to use it...not sure the official name but it's a great color!

the color isn't as dark as this picture makes it look.

next up, the hallway. it's all primed and ready for a coat of paint...i'm glad or i am sure we would procrastinate on this task.
