New Year's Eve brought some fun at our house and projects that I decided to try to get done since we were unsure of how long it would be until we went to Korea. First, John and I loaded in insulation into our non-insulated attic.
Over Christmas I decided my den needed an accent wall. I started with browns.
After that didn't work, I did red. I edged in and John painted the walls. I realized when we sat down to look at it that it was Satin and not eggshell/flat paint.
So, I repainted it the next day with a new gallon of flat paint. I just used a brush to try to reduce streaks. It didn't look bad, but wasn't what I was after.
Yep....back to the drawing board. I decided a 'burlap' color would look good. I went in the store and the first color I picked up was it!!! We painted it and I love it. I have edged in one last time and now John is going to repaint one more time.
While John was painting the satin read, Olivia had a glow stick bath.
After her bath, we used her new easy bake oven. She has begged for one. She ate all dozen cookies in a matter of minutes. Maybe its cause they were the size of a penny! She had a blast!!! It was a great New Year's Eve!!! Now to get Easton's room ready!
New years day brought a first annual tradition! We joined the Jenkins' family for dinner. Oh how I love that family! Lots of good laughs and always a great time!
