Today was an excellent day of painting for us! We painted all the ceilings inside and out white and it looks awesome! Seriously so good. I love seeing the all white and how it makes such a contrast to everything else. Love it!
The kids worked hard scraping and sanding old edges on the walls and ceilings and gathering lizards. To quote my mother in law “Many hands make light work” and we’ve found that to be true! Things have moved along pretty quickly this week with so many helpers. Josh filled in some holes and cracks in the concrete and then we moved inside with the sprayer to paint the ceilings in there. We did every thing except one room before the paint ran out. Back to Home Depot tomorrow for more paint I guess.
We did decide on the color for the outside and went with the lighter of the two colors, Seafoam. While the ceilings were being sprayed inside, the Seafoam green was being rolled on outside. Everyone pitched in and then Josh came around behind them and cleaned it all up and made it look amazing. Oh my word the color turned out so good!! We all love it. We still need to finish around edges tomorrow after the rest of this is dry and we can tape, but for now we just admire the color on the walls and love every bit of it! Obviously there’s still so much more to paint but it’s so fun to get to this point with a small portion of the house.
Another trip to the beach tonight to celebrate all our work! We love that we can get there in 10 minutes and spend an hour or two or however long we want. Tonight was just to get out of the house and try to wash all the paint away that we’ve accumulated all over our bodies!
