PAINT.  It's been a big paint fest.  Make sure you really know what colors you want before you buy them.  We had to completely change the kitchen and dining room colors because together they looked like a clown house.  After the color change - this is what we ended up with.

The greenish color wraps from the dining room into the kitchen. We will be changing the kitchen counter tops as soon as we find the right tile on craigslist.

This is before and after for the kitchen.  Still need to finish the kitchen floor - our 'after' photos aren't completely finished yet.

 



Next was the living room and hallways.  We went with a lighter more soothing blue/grey color.  Here's David with his crazy no tape skills.  He wouldn't allow anyone else to touch the walls with a paintbrush.  I found other things to do all weekend.

Hallway

Living room before and after.  Still need to finish the beams...

Tonight we starting furnishing the finished rooms.  This is the dining room entryway.  Pre-paint and refinished floors. 

This is our 'walk through' room - where we'll have an office.  David has been very obsessed with chameleon colors - colors that look different at different times of the day.  This particular photo doesn't accurately reflect what the room color ever actually looks like. 

While David was busy painting everything this weekend, I went and picked up a new goat, Buddy.  He quickly escaped from our makeshift fence and took off down the street.  I transported both he and Bell in my car to my sisters where they'll both stay until we can build a goat proof fence.

Bye for now.
