Painting again

Sorry I haven't posted in a while, but I've been busy. If you've seen Shannon's blog you will know that we
painted the dining room a few weeks ago. This weekend we painted the kitchen. Why all the painting? Well there was nothing wrong with the old color but it was just a little on the pink side. Something that neither of us noticed until we were moving in (it's very subtle). We are also planning on having Thanksgiving dinner here so we wanted it to look nice.

On Friday we all had the day off, so we started by painting the ceiling and trim. Daisy was helping. Later Friday evening we got rid of the kids and went to a play with a friend. I'd been wanting to see this play (10 little Indians) for a while because I think it was the first play I saw (I was like 8 or 9). Unfortunately this production was not (I'm searching for the correct term...Oh yes) good. They weren't bad, well really bad, but they just had no sense of timing. They turned what I consider to be a suspenseful murder mystery into a farce. Still it was nice to get out.
Saturday we woke up, made waffles and painted the walls in the kitchen. Not much wall space so this went pretty quickly. We didn't tape the ceiling or trim, so that took a little longer freehand. I think it looks good, but our house is starting to look like we really like yellow.

Later that night we went to Shannons Mom's house for dinner and dessert.
Well that was our weekend, how was yours?...What's that?...What picture of Morgan?...I don't know what you are talking about?

Mickey Mouse waffles I presume? I hope Morgan doesn't read this blog, he'll kill you!

I stopped making MM waffles because the new MM waffle irons aren't as good as the older models and I used the old one too death. Now we use this big 2 sided KitchenAid waffle iron. We're pretty serious about waffles here

That is a wonderful picture of Morgan, it will great one for the power point wedding presentation.

It is nice to see you posting again, I had figured you and Keeefer went for a beer together and got so drunk you couldn't find your way back to blogland.

I have been thinking of painting my kitchen yellow, yours looks great.

I'm very tired of painting. I don't were going to paint our bedroom until spring.

Your kitchen looks great Will. (I love the dining room, too) Too bad about Ten Little Indians - maybe it seemed more suspensful when you were 8 because you were only 8. Oh well - at least you got to go see it and get out of painting for a while. The picture of Morgan - what picture? I don't know what you're talking about.
