Painting Update

So, we went and picked a new color last night.  Milk chocolate to be exact. Sounds yummy doesn't it?   I started painting in the kitchen.  It looks good with the granite, just not the countertops.  Oops!!!  As I was working my way around the kitchen, I realized that painting the kitchen is not in my scope of talents.  Way out of my league!  I can't reach over the cabinets and there are tons of tiny places to paint into, as well as a lot of detail to paint around the cabinets.  We went today and picked out another color. I am hoping this is the one :)  We also found us a painter.  He is coming tomorrow.  I will post a picture once our painting is truly done. Until then, this orange and milk chocolate combo is driving me crazy.


ps. Dad, I should have gotten in the I can paint anything and pick out great paint colors line with you in Heaven.  What was I thinking? I must have seen some shoes I liked?

My Fool's Rush In Moment

Kyle and I finally decided it was time to make our home look like home.  We decided to start by painting the walls.  Saturday we went out and picked out the colors to paint.  We would paint the formal dining room green and the breakfast room and kitchen orange.

Our dining room.  I am liking the green.

Now for the orange breakfast room.

Go ahead and laugh.  I am.  All we need to do is figure out where to hang the chicken and an antique statue of Jesus.  Can you hear the tune?  "Wise men say, only fools rush in"  I can.  It is what Kyle is singing right now.

Now I just have to go pick up the kids, so that I can go back and buy a different paint color to go on the walls. All I am seeing is orange.  I don't want to have orange nightmares.  I think we have taken being University of Tennessee fans to a whole new level.
