colors

Wow...am I tired! I've been working on our kitchen this week. Yes, this is the same kitchen that I have been working on, off and on, for the whole 2 1/2 years that we have lived here. FINALLY it looks different!

A couple weeks ago my parents were lovely enough to come over and get sweaty (after a yummy dinner, of course) and help me take down the beautiful 80's wallpaper. RK still misses the wallpaper by the way. She wanted to know if we were going to put it back up...

Last week (after saving our $$, thank you very much Dave Ramsey) our gaping hole in our ceiling was fixed---this is where we had removed the HUGE cabinet and sophet---and by "we" I mean my mom and husband. I'm the idea girl really.

Up until this week, that is...I got mine. Mom came over Monday and worked on the pretty new pendent lights while I slaved painting the ceiling in the dining room and kitchen. Let me just say that I WILL NOT be doing that again! There is a reason people get paid to do that!

Yesterday I painted all the walls and started the cabinets. Which means I had to pick colors...it took me a good 2 months to figure out what I wanted and I still wasn't super-sure at the store. But now its started so the decision is made.

We still have a long way to go and I know you are dying for pictures...sorry don't have any right now. Promise that they will come soon! Its killing you right? I know you won't be able to sleep because I haven't told you what colors I picked... :)
