Hard Work

Everything had to be painted. The worst part was the ceiling was the same color as the walls! We had to stretch high and use extenders. We borrowed ladders. So many people can to help (which we appreciate A LOT!) Cory did the high up parts and I stayed safe on the ground.

This is in one of the bedrooms. It was bright cherry red. Though the red was not done with a primer or a second coat so some areas where darker than others.



The room is red no more.




Cory is painting the top of the stair way.



Not only did all the walls need repainting, all the floor in our house has been changed somehow. Not only did we put in new carpet in the bedrooms, wood floor in the living room, we also had to scrub a fading stain off all of the tile. When we first moved in I thought the house would turn out perfect except for the color of the tile. Happily one day I spilled some 409 cleaner on the floor. It took off the stain! We didn't want to have to 409 and scrub the entire floor so we bought some stripper from Lowes and the stain came off! YEAH!

Site of the happy accident.

Cory, hard worker and handsome husband.

Bathroom done, hallway not. Again getting rid of the Mexican cantina feeling.
