I am so proud

In mid Feb my mom came in town. My mom has a fun time redecorating--especially my house. So, while she was here I mentioned that I really wanted to paint my entire downstairs to get rid of the ugly brown wood paneled walls. She helped me measure and took me to the paint store. We picked out the color and got most of the supplies and I started the project. I have never painted before and I knew it would be a big project, but the downstairs was so ugly that I was very motivated. It took me two weeks because really the only time I could paint was while Katie was napping during the day or after the kids went to bed. Thanks to my sweet visiting teacher who came over and helped and Rick who put the kids to bed every night for two weeks so I could start painting by 8pm. It turned out great and has dramatically changed the entire feeling of our downstairs family room. I am so proud!
