Today we have a friend painting our living room, entry way, office and upstairs hallway, a light gray, while we are at work! Woohoo!! :) Brenden and I really wanted to paint the house on our own but with us working from 8am-5pm (but we never really get done and get home until 8 or 9 normally) and we work Monday through Saturday so the only day we would be able to paint is Sunday and we cannot get a whole house painted in just one day a week, that would take forever!! So we keep getting updated pictures of how the painting is going so I figured I would share them with you until I show you the finished rooms!

After the painting is done in these four rooms we are going to paint the master bedroom and bathroom a teal color, paint the door molding, paint or get new doors for the rooms in the upstairs hallway, tear out the carpet and stain and finish the hardwood floors (that are underneath the carpet) a dark brown. Then we want to get new baseboards.
So we have a lot to do still but we are so excited to finally be able to get things done now that the holidays are over and the weather is getting better!
Oh! I forgot to mention, the 5 gallon bucket of gray paint we used only cost $6 and some change because Brenden and I had a few gift cards from Christmas that we didn't use yet! That truly made the paint sooo much better! Haha. (Also if your wondering why I purchased so much paint that is because we think we are going to paint most of the upstairs with that color gray and we figured we would have to do multiple coats, however right now it looks good with just one coat of paint?!)
