This is what is in store for me, tomorrow. This will eventually be Stella's room but first the electric purple and the florescent green need to go. YIKES! More priming everything white is in my near future. It's pretty amazing how color or lack there of, changes the feel of a house or a room. Along with the kitchen and this room, my goal is to get them both primered tomorrow by 1pm. After that it's play time. Stella and I are going to the pumpkin patch and to see Where the Wild Things Are! Woo- hoo !

This morning started early! We got to painting almost at first light. Last night I picked up a 5 gallon bucket of primer and a bunch of paint supplies. Tommy came up this morning and my mom and Stella met us at the house after they got up. The mission for the day was to get rid of the pepto pink walls and replace them with institutional white primer. Tommy and I getting started. Didn't know at this point that we were going to have to do three coats to cover up the pink. If we knew what we were getting into I don't think we would be smiling. :) Luckily the ceilings are low. Made it a little easier. Look, no more pink! After three coats on the living and dining room, we only got to 1/2 the kitchen. That project is for tomorrow. Tommy and I taking a goofy picture....probably high off smelling paint fumes for 10 hours! Hope everyone is having a productive and fun weekend. More updates soon! Much Love!
