master bedroom walls makeover...

Well, after almost 5 years in this house, we're finally doing something about these drab "bone" colored walls.

Jeff's parents are here this week visiting, getting in some quality time with Deacon and they are loving it.  But in between those special times, we're putting my father-in-law to work.  But he likes to work, so it's all good.  :)

He is a (fantastic) painter so we decided before they got here that we were going to have him paint our bedroom.  We were watching TV one night and a commercial came on for Lowe's or something that showed this beautiful shade of green in some room of a house and I don't know, I just went crazy over it.

Green is my favorite color, anyway, but with the white trim in the room they were using in the commercial, it just looked AWESOME.  So I said something about that and Jeff asked me if we should have his dad knock it out while he was here.

Knock it out, he did!  They flew in Tuesday evening, and when I got home from work Wednesday, it was done.  And oh, was it beautiful!  It is THE perfect shade of green for our bedroom...

I love everything about this color on my walls!  It's so sophisticated and classy -- everytime I walk in there I feel like I'm in a house on Bald Head Island or something.  Jeff really likes it, too.

Duane did a great job, yes?  I am so happy with how it looks.  And bless his heart, he's offered to paint any other rooms in our house, whatever we want/need.  So we're taking him up on his offer, though I feel more badly about that than Jeff does.  I hate for him to come down on vacation and we're putting to him work.  But he has assured me that he doesn't mind, and as I said before, I think he likes to work.  He likes to be busy, I'll say that.  Whether this seems like work to him or not, I don't know.

So in the spirit of keeping Duane busy, most of our walls are getting a makeover this week.  Check back soon to see what I mean!
