Paint, paint everywhere!


We're back home from a nice trip to Colorado. The biggest thing that has happened to the house since the last post has been painting (and more painting). Dad came up on Saturday (the last in May) and helped tremendously with getting paint on the wall after it had been primed on Friday.

Kristin and I primed the ceiling over the knockdown texture once Dad left with good old Kilz. Yesterday and today I used paint on the ceiling in anticipation of our cabinets being installed tomorrow. It makes it easier to paint without them there :).

Hopefully more pictures tomorrow with the new cabinets!

Picture note: Most of the lights are not working yet in the kitchen, so painting in the evening is difficult especially when it is cloudy. This is the lamp that lit the way. ( Much as I did with my toys as a kid, the lamp is actually a combination of two laps, one of which broke.)

Glad to hear the vacation was good! I loved the fact you had to make your own lamp. Priceless! And yay for helpful Dad!
