New coat of paint

Just an update on what we're been up to this weekend. Yup, we've been sanding and painting the living room and dining room. But we did have enough time to take a minute and pose for this one -- Matt likes to call it Garwood Gothic.

Special thanks to Barry for coming over today to help us out. We got a lot more done today than we expected thank to him! By the end of the day, everything was sanded, the ceiling was painted, and there was primer on all the walls!

Sanding came first. Thanks to the magic of photography, I look like I'm sanding faster than I really was.

We did have to remind Matt that the paint goes on the wall and not on his face.

We're excited to get actual color on the wall tomorrow! We've had the paint colors selected for almost a year. Keep checking in on the blog for updates.
