Today was gray paint day upstairs and we worked hard rolling and rolling and rolling all over those walls up there. The kids just kept working and it was, as the girls would say, “so satisfying” to see how the walls changed as we painted. We wanted to get one full coat of paint on this morning so it could dry during the day. We cranked up the country music and worked our tails off for a good 4 hours getting it all done. The color turned out great and I think will make it all look like a good neutral base color for now.
After we got the walls done we took a break while the paint dried. Kim and Hector invited us over to swim in between renters at their house and we gladly took them up on their offer! Their pool and yard is so fun and beautiful and it was a perfect day to be at the pool.
After we got back from the pool the girls had some homework to do and the boys got a tournament of speed going. I started back upstairs to tape along the ceiling so we could finish up with the gray trim tonight. We wanted to try and get it all done before we leave and now that we’re so close, we felt the push to just get it wrapped up. We worked until about 10:30 tonight taping and painting and removing tape and touching up. And then we called it a day because we were just exhausted. Tomorrow morning we’ll check it all out and see how we did…
