Memorial Day Weekend Madness

Whew! We just blew through a 3 day weekend in a blink of an eye! The girls are exhausted, as am I, but we are ready to enter our last week of school...yee haw! We had several late nights and a picnic with a bunch of friends today, so I am about partied out. I need to get MC's mojito recipe...

The house is now entirely painted on the interior. I intended to paint the Master Bath in left-over paint from our last house, but apparently it froze in the garage this winter. It was solid in the can. After a quick trip to Lowe's (I am getting utterly tired of quick trips to Lowe's), I got paint and covered the walls on Sunday.


Then returned this afternoon to do a faux treatment in a ragging technique. It took a long time, but looks nice. I did it in our last bathroom, which was much smaller and consequently did not take nearly as long to complete!


We were pleasantly surprised to see the crew out on a holiday up on the scaffolding.


They have finished the ceilings in the Great Room. Isn't it gorgeous? Now we just need our chandelier. The crew were offering me various stuffed and mounted animal heads to put on the walls...a very kind gesture, but I think I'll pass.


The girls' walls are quite bright. I'm hoping they are able to sleep in this room!


The yellow looks good in the Mud Room and Bathrooms.


Siding is up above the hip roof on the entrance side of the house...


...around the breezeway door and under the garage eaves in front.


The kitchen cabinets are scheduled for delivery on Wednesday, and they plan to start putting in some of the lighting this week.
