White is the 'new' Blue

Couple of weekends ago, we went back to the old house to paint paint paint.

When we first decided to paint the family room blue - over three years ago, we (and by we I mean me) knew that we would eventually have to re-paint. Because well it was blue, people. Blue.

So we re-painted.

I have to admit the whole 'excitement' that was initially there at the beginning was gone. We were just painting to paint. Gone were those feelings of the new house with the pretty walls. But it wasn't bad in any way, more tedious really. But not a big deal.

And we about finished - actually ran out of paint. Impressive, I know.

Master Bedroom.
Good bye dark green.

And that was that. We still have to do another coat in both rooms - the master bedroom gets the flesh color that was on the other walls. Not too big of a deal - probably only a couple hours (we're almost professionals).

And the funny thing about this was we painted a hallway in our church this past weekend. Darin wants nothing more to do with paint. (He's the edger, I'm the taper and roller).

So we'll see. I'll just have to teach Jake to paint. He's pretty talented. You never know.
