As promised here are some updated pictures of what we've gotten done on the house. We officially have no more hideous floral wallpaper, and unfortunately for him the Mikey Mouse room is officially gone too. We still have a lot of work to do to get the house pulled back together for the party this weekend, but at least all the big painting is out of the way. Oh, and Bobby, the bathroom is more of a copper than a brown, it's not as dark as it looks in this picture. I'll make sure to post more pictures after the party this weekend so you can see the finished product!

So with the housewarming party only a few weeks away, Kirk and I decided it's time to get serious about getting the house ready. We started tearing all the hideous wallpaper down in the kitchen about a month ago and hadn't done anything more since. This weekend we accomplished A TON; thanks to the help of both families! The Mickey Mouse room is now painted with just the trim left to finish and the floral upstairs bathroom is now a nice woodsie brown also with trim left to be done. Of course the kitchen, the one room we really need to finish because we are gaining weight from all the take out dinners, is still not done, we are hoping after another long weekend of work it will be; it kind of has to be given the party is next weekend! I forgot to take before pictures of the office and bathroom but here are some before pictures of the kitchen and I'll be posting all the after pictures Monday!
