Good thing our friend, Chad, didn't mind jumping in.  Chad helped me with the trimming... which made everything faster and saved me from a painful, cramped, aching hand.  I'm super grateful!

We decided to paint the foyer, which was probably our most dramatic change, as it went from bright red to a more subdued cream.  Evidence:

Love love love it.  The room looks bigger and brighter after just one coat.

Trimming.  Chad took high, I took low.

Painting.  The radiator in the corner there posed a minor issue, but we got through it.

 See that lamp hanging there?  Earlier we climbed up to wash it out and found a bouncy ball inside!

I don't think I can adequately describe how excited Dave is to play with Mosie with this ball.

Painters by a red wall:

And a fancy new "crepe" wall!

Afterwards we celebrated with pizza (and barley and veggies) and sparking juice from IKEA!

One more coat to go (and three more rooms...)
