Jim installed this mirror above the kids vanity this week. I think it turned out beautifully. He bought a plain mirror and framed it out with some moulding. I love the fact that I can tell Jim what I want and he can make it a reality. Way to go JD!

Renovation Realities

We finally moved upstairs yesterday. It has been a crazy, busy weekend. We really feel like we've moved. The above pictures are to give you an idea of what life has been like lately. The first picture is of the paint cans that seem to be following (haunting) me lately because all I do is paint, paint, paint. The second picture is of our closet. We haven't done a closet system in the master yet because we just coughed up about $650 for the kids closets and we're happy to live out of laundry baskets for the time being. The last picture is of our garage which makes me stressed out every time I look at it. Jim is slowly chipping away at it. He's making his workshop in the basement now that we have more room in the house. Maybe we'll be able to park in our garage someday?!?!

Jack's Turn...

Doors, Doors, Doors...

We have a total of 11 doors in the addition and since I'm the painter I paint all of them.

So that's 11 doors x 2 sides = 22 x 3 coats each = 66 times I have to paint a door face = I'm sick of doors!! I guess the bright side is that we bought the pre-primed doors...
