Sunny Room





Last Thursday our water heater leaked water into our family room. Cleaning it up required replacing the carpet. After moving all the furniture out (Thanks Connie, Arron, Nick, Zack,Billy, and Scott) the carpet was replaced. While contemplating the daunting task of replacing all of the furniture, I decided that the room needed to be painted first. On Saturday, Richard and I painted while the kids were wonderful and stayed out of our way. When we bought the paint i noticed that 2 of the gallons had been mixed with pastel based paint while one had been mixed with an accent based paint. After being assured by more that one person that it would not make a difference, we took the paint home. Saturday night after spending the whole day painting, we realized that the people at Home Depot were wrong and it does make a difference. We had to get the room painted because Kiersten and Sarah's room was completely filled with furniture and they could not sleep of get to any of their cloths. This only meant one thing, we had to finish the room Saturday night. With much hard work from the whole family we were able to get the room a much needed face lift. Thanks to Guy and Drue we were able to get the beast of a couch back downstairs and the room is now functional again.
Notice the two color walls
