The Move: Getting there...slowly but surely...

Progress from the past week...

Painting of the kids' rooms began!  They will be finished this week so we can start getting them moved in and they can finally feel more settled.  Yes, they got to pick their own colors!

Hillary picked purple - three different shades for the walls, window cubby area and ceiling.  Painter Jen is also going to paint some flowers on one of the walls before it's all said and done.

Peyton picked purple (Wildcats) and orange (Broncos). He also ordered two fatheads for the walls.  Maybe the bright colors will help him hop right out of bed in the mornings for those 6:30am basketball practices.  Since he doesn't have a true closet in his room, Chad built him some cubbies and a hanging rack.

Trace picked black and gold (Andale) and Jen is going to paint an Indian on one of the walls.  Again, REALLY hoping that bright yellow will be the key to Trace getting up the first time the alarm goes off in the mornings!  Fortunately the black and gold also works for Wichita State :).








 The guest bathroom is underway and I think this is one of my favorite projects we are doing! The tin came from the barn where John grew up, and seeing it up on the wall after talking about it is really neat.

We also did a little furniture shopping, which will be delivered on Friday. Our other goal this weekend is to get the rest of the boxes off the trailer and move it on out of our driveway and back to its owner!
