Another Project Off the List...
The other thing we've been busy with is paint.
We have painted almost every surface of the first floor of this house. The kitchen, family room, dining room, and living room have all been freshly painted and brightened up. The biggest *phew* of all was getting all of the trim painted white. It was so chipped up and banged up and many different shades of dirty white. Yuck!
Now it's all crisp, clean, bright white.
Feels like a new house!
Here are before and after shots of the living room (Check out the fireplace, too! Delicious!):

4th of July in October
Well, I'm finally able to see the light at the end of my work tunnel, and am realizing how terribly lax I've been with this blog.
We've done a bit more in the last few months than finish our kitchen, play baseball, and head off to school.
Yes, we've been up to more fun and projects and now I have the time to share them with you. Aren't you excited?!
In looking back over the summer, one of the standout things we did was a slightly spontaneous trip to a friend's cabin in Walker, MN. We spent 4th of July weekend swimming, kayaking, tubing, fishing, boating, eating, sleeping, and just enjoying every minute. It was heavenly.
See photos in the next post.
