Sunday Funday

Two post in one day? Epic, I know. This however was so momentous, I just had to take a minute to let y'all know! Not really, I wish...but I'm still excited to share with you, nonetheless!
We're going to paint the living room! Shocker, I know. Exactly the news you were hoping for, right? Kind of a really spontaneous decision but as far as spontaneous decisions go it's one that can be easily fixed if it goes awry. So at, two pm Hawaii time, Joe and our neighbor headed to Home Depot for the second time today. The first time they went, they got everything to paint - except the actual paint. Joe and I had picked a color but then he chickened out changed his mind. So with the expert advice of our neighbor (haha he actually had some really good opinions - turns out we have a similar decorating style - who knew?!?), we all (yes the three of us) picked a color we could live with and they are back at the store. I am so ready to break out of this white box - bring on some color! Nothing like waiting until the end of the weekend to start a project. Oh well, should be fun! Here are some befores......

Pretty boring, I know

Yes, Denali and I still hang out, a lot even though her owner's back now. Keeps us both out of trouble.

All the paint swatches the boys picked out. Guess which color we picked?

The boys discussing paint colors and painting techniques. Our neighbor was really pulling for a faux finish sponge paint technique, I told him I'd totally be up for that, in his house.

Stay tuned tomorrow for the (hopefully) finished product.
