Painting day

I'm finally getting the pictures from the day we painted the house posted. We settled on the house on a Thursday, and all day Friday we painted to be done before the big move-in on Saturday. Literally for a total of about 12 hours. We never would have been able to do it without help, especially because Martin had to be at work and I am pregnant. Our parents helped out so much!

Dad and I worked in the baby's room:

Dad working in the kitchen:

I'm doing the first coat of red...which looked like strawberry jelly at first:

but turned out looking very nice:

Dad rolled the whole downstairs in a second coat of tan:

Mom finishing up the red:

I will have a complete "after" picture up sometime soon. Right now the couch is way comfier than getting up and taking one :-)
