eat.sleep.work

That pretty much sums up the weekend... We put hardwoods in the new dining room, put new hardwoods in the living room, painted, hung the lighting fixture, assembled furniture, etc. We're both wiped but so happy with the way the dining room turned out. It's not done - we still have lots of little things left like all the finishing work, paint the exterior and now decorating (YAY).

enjoying the new floor in the dining room - we were so excited for it to be done so we spent a lot of time kicking it down there

hanging out on the couch while mom & dad work
now playing on the new floor in the living room
Drum roll......... Pics of the room
new furniture (leaf isn't in the table)
you can kind of tell the color of the room from this pic
These pics don't do the room justice... It was hard to get a good picture. The walls are a light green but look blueish in these pics. I'll be working on the decorating this week, we still need to do all the trim, put up window coverings, etc. but it's almost there!

(Thanks for the paint recco Emilie. Silver Sage was the exact color I had in mind and love it)
