{ Living room makeover }

So, Dad went out of town and mom and I decided that it would be fun to surprise

him with painting to living room... well it was a lot more than just painting! :-)

Thanks to the Skidmore family for helping us paint and move furniture!!

Before....

Taping up!

The first wall...

P.S. There has NEVER been paint on these walls since we've

bought it, so this is REALLY different... but REALLY fun1

Paint, Paint and more Paint!

This was my first time painting...

Painting.... CHECK!

WE also bought a really neat side table for the "new" room! At the beginning I had NO CLUE what I was doing... cams, cam screws, cam dowels. :-)

But it turned out great!.... hopefully it won't fall apart!  = )

Side Table and lamps..... CHECK!

Everything back in place and curtains hung up (with tape we don't have any curtain rods yet)!

Looking good!

Curtains.... CHECK!

After...

We LOVE it.... the color, new furniture, new lamps, and curtains!

Dad thought it was awesome when he came home! :-D

 Operation living room..... CHECK!

Dad was suppose to come home around 8:30p.m. but his plane got delayed and he won't be getting in till 11:30p.m.! So, he found out before any of us could see him, but in the morning we gave him to "tour"!
