New Paint!!!

Coleen and Rick left our house more beautiful than they found it - with new paint in the living room, and a gorgeous custom-framed family picture on the wall. Coleen and Spencer were incredible and fast painters, and the color really warmed up the feeling in the room. After they left, Tyler painted our kitchen area with the leftover paint (as part of his Family Life Merit Badge for scouting). I am very happy with how everything turned out! Pictures don't totally capture it, but here are a few angles of the room - so you can see the walls, the family picture, and my cute new frames along the wall in our kitchen, too. We have three new lamps in there, too, that are gorgeous and really light things up. Thank you so much Rick and Coleen! As you can see, we are in the Christmas Spirit here in Minnesota! We love our tree and nutcrackers and nativities....but we don't love the freezing temperatures. It was 2 degrees when we woke up this morning!

Isn't it amazing what a coat of paint will do? We finally painted our kitchen after living in our house for five years, and I keep thinking, "Why didn't I do this sooner?" =)

Amanda looks great in her glasses.
I love the new paint job. I am wanting to paint our livingroom in the Spring time. It is amazing how new paint can change a room.
