What the girls were up to this week-end...



Here is a "action shot" of Mom cutting around the baseboards...it took me a bit to get down on my hands and knees to get this shot, but I think it turned out ok...this is me painting the nursery...my very first time painting I would like to add...it was a bit harder on my hands and wrists than I was thinking it would be...I would get the wall done with the roller as high as I could go and almost do the whole wall...but then my wrist would get sore and Mom would come to the rescue...it is a pale yellow to co-ordinate with the quilt and pillow set from Great Auntie Bebe...thank you...we had a bit of a scare when we painted the first wall across from the only window in the room because it seemed like the paint was so concentrated in one area and so pale at the bottom of the same wall...turns out the sun was playing tricks on us...we also found a nice check fabric for curtains and maybe a crib skirt...

The boys said they liked to colour...but then again the just got home from the TV Legion with a big pack of steaks and a turkey...and they had a few jugs of beer...so Im not sure if they were doing the talking or the drinks were...oh well...it is gonna stay that colour for a little while...

Yes, you gotta love fresh paint, it doesn't cost a lot of $ but sure makes an impact on a room! Now to schedule another visit so she can paint the trim & doors, and hang some cutrains...as soon as I make them!
