Painting!

I've been dying to post about our upstairs painting endeavors of a couple of weeks ago! We decided we wanted to surprise our parents with it since they were coming for Thanksgiving. I couldn't post it, because my mom is one of my most regular blog readers. I have been informed that my parents are currently driving here, so I can post it now!

We started on a Friday evening. Abraham really helped out a lot for a few hours.

Jen is a super fast roller. She helped out tons!

Susannah painted the brown accent wall herself! It's super scary painting there because it's so high and is on the landing of the stairs. There's not a ton of room and the ladder is at a very steep angle!

I finished off the blue Saturday morning. I had to run and get more paint in order to finish it off.

I taped off and painted the stripe and word box. It took me almost an hour! It's still a little lower on one side than the other! Shhh!

Susannah applied the wall stickers after the paint had dried and the tape was removed.

Several days later, we added some embellishments.

Here's what we've got as of now. We're still hunting for some good frames and more pictures to put up. We love it. What do you think?
