So we moved into our new apartment about a month ago. The paint on the walls was terrible, it looked and felt like sheet rock. Since our apartment complex allows us to paint, we decided it would if nothing more be cheap intertainment. We went to the store and picked out a color. We really liked it and thought we would paint most of the apartment with it. We decided to start in the dining room. HOLY COW it was darker than we thought once it was on the wall. We liked it but knew we couldn't do the whole apartment that color. We wanted to paint the living room aswell but not that green color.... so we went to the store again and found another color we liked, being very careful not to get anything too dark that we would regret putting on the walls. We taped everything up started painting and it was very light. Now that that room is painted it doesn't really look like we spent four hous taping and painting. We got too light of paint. I didn't know picking out paint colors woudl be so hard.
Before and After Pictures
It was kind of fun to paint together. Roy tried to paint my arm with the roller, but he knows better so he just got a little on me. Again he remembered how big of a perfectionist I am. He couldn't believe how much time I spent making a clean line by the baseboards. Of course Molly hated us painting because she had to be locked up in her kennel. She couldn't figure out why she was locked up while we were home. But can you imagine what color our little puppy would be if she would have been out???? Who knows when we will paint again, maybe tomorrow we will do another room.

YEAH! You have a blog! Sorry abouty our wrist, has it healed yet? I love you apartment, you have always had a super cute place. We had company over to our house and one of the girls pointed out some decorations and commented how cute they were. I thought of you because every single one she pointed to was one that I copied from you. Looks like you are doing well, did you ever find a job? You can move to Royal, they have jobs here! :)jk
