A Work in Progress

Well, if you guessed that we redid Mackenzie's room, you guessed right. We actually moved her into our other bedroom. It's actually a bigger room with a bigger closet-just what a girl needs! She is really enjoying her new "princess room". It is basically done other than adding pictures to the wall. I will post pictures of the finished room soon- it is adorable! Here are a few pictures of the work in progress.

You can kind of see the difference between the 2 walls-we did three walls a real light pink and the back wall a darker pink. Everything ties together so well. As we were moving things back in, Mackenzie was continuously saying "Oh my gosh!". It was hilarious! That is her new saying as she says it often!

We have lots of fun posts coming up with new pictures of her bedroom, holiday posts, and lots of other fun things I have up my sleeve.

A New Project

What do you think the new project is? Let's just say I really enjoy re-decorating and we have a little princess in the house. That's your hint. :-) You can figure out the rest and I will post pics soon of the completion of the project.

No, she did not have any paint on the paintbrush, nor did she really "help".

Such a big cheese!

By the way, the low odor paint is really awesome! It's amazing the difference! Can't wait to show colors and pictures of it!

A Work in Progress

As you know, we have quite a big project going on at our house with new painting and flooring for a majority of our house. This has consumed most of our time. It sure will be nice when everything is done and our house is back to normal with everything back in its place. I am so excited to see the end result. Meanwhile, here are some pictures of our work in progress. Enjoy and check back soon for more photos!
Getting started with flooring in the kitchen. Don't the walls look different?



Making progress!

A happy family in our new kitchen:-)

Enjoy the video. You will get a good idea of how our house looks like right now, before the new flooring is put down. You can also see how good the kitchen looks with the new floors--that is what we are doing with the rest of the house minus the bedrooms. No, we are not going with concrete floors :-) It's a big project, but will sure be worth it!

Stay tuned for more pictures of this work in progress, plus we have VBS this week so I will be posting about that soon!

Look at our new project!

Well, we have a new project on our hands. Any ideas?

Yup, we're painting! The blue in the kitchen and gray throughout the living, dining, entry, and hallway.

Uh-oh! Look what happened to the carpet! Good thing we're getting new flooring! A whole new look !!! Will update with more later!

Painting Pumpkins!

There's always something fun to do at the library with little ones. So I signed Mackenzie up for a program today called Paint your Pumpkin. She had a lot of fun. Everytime she got paint on her hands, she had to have mommy wipe them off. As you can tell, she likes her hands to be clean (she doesn't mind them being in dirt, though, or playing with chalk). This was actually her first experience with paint--she did awesome! I was very proud of her work and the way she held her paintbrush.

Waiting patiently while mama (her favorite word now :-) ) is getting her paint.

The finished product. Great job, Kenzie!

She waved bye-bye to her pumpkin as we left. We'll let it dry and then pick it up later. :-) Have a great weekend!
