Happy Halloween!!
I found the girls' costumes at a consignment shop, and they were perfect! Hayden went as a cupcake, and Audri as a monkey. I must say, the costumes fit their personalities quite well :)
 |
| getting ready to head out... notice Hayden's princess covered treat basket in the background?? |
 |
| It was soooooo cold. Good thing the costumes were pretty warm! |
 |
| found a little clippy to make it clear she's a girl monkey! |

We Love to Paint!

After the texturing was completed, we could finally paint! We had spent a lot of time figuring out our colors, so it was super satisfying to see it all starting to come together!
Oh yeah, and we also had to paint all the trim for the house. We were going to reuse the original trim, but my dad had a ton left over from when they built their house. We ended up having to purchase a little more, but we found a great deal on it and love the result. We spread the trim out in all three bedrooms and the living room, and still had to do it in a couple of phases! We used the same deglosser we put on our kitchen cabinets, only this time we used Valspar's Signature Paint & Primer. Love that stuff!

| our paint samples - kind of hard to see, but we went with 3 main colors |
 |
| we're always looking for a deal, and I was so happy to find some quality paint on sale... plus a 10% off coupon! |
 |
| we used one, 5-gallon bucket of paint to apply two coats of yellow in the girls' rooms {my grandma Alice did the edging, while my brother josh rolled the walls} |
 |
| we only needed a gallon to cover the upper 2/3 of the kids' bathroom! |
 |
| the rest of the house was covered in this wonderful "warm-gray" color - so in love with the results! |
