A 71 watt bulb ...


Kaleb changing the lightbulb in the kitchen ... Ahhhh what a difference ONE bulb makes! :)

Thursday night in the kitchen ...!

Check this out! Cabinets ready for new paint and hardware.
The doors ... the drawers ... the work involved! :)

WOW! This is only the bottom half of the shelves... I am so thankful Kaleb could join me in the kitchen tonight for some fun! I love spending time with him - he is so funny and interesting.

I took a moment and did a little shabby chic on this one door ... I may end up doing a little 'shabby magic' on all of them?!


The hardware.

Kaleb ... telling me about "The Diary of a Whimpy Kid" books ... funny!


Wendy ... I am officially a full-time construction worker these days! :)

Looking good!


Standing in the hallway looking into the rooms ... Ahhhhh it's looking good! :)

Groovy Baby ...!

These glasses are ultra cool ... They go perfect with the tunes from the 60's and 70's ...! :)


The day after ...

A shot of our new, light color in the front room... I still like it today.
That's a good thing! :)

It's very light but will work perfect for my overall vision for the place.

I need an 8 foot giant ...

This is the window at the top of the hallway and as you can see, it is very high. I left the top section of plastic and tape for the 8 foot giant that will hopefully stop by tomorrow! :)

This is one of the doors in the upstairs hallway. We covered them with tape and plastic so we could texture and paint last weekend. Pulling it off was a mess - all the texture flying off made it feel like it was snowing!

I spent about 3 hours cleaning today ... It was crazy from last weekend's work adventure. It looks and feels much better. Tomorrow I can focus on paint and primer in the dining room.
