As many of you know we recently moved from our big log cabin. It was a nice home, but we had dirty water the last three months of living there. It was not fun to have the water always look yellow. Camille kept thinking Adam didn't flush the toilet after using...towards the end Adam kept saying, "If it's yellow, let it mellow, if it's brown, flush it down." Camille was not amused. At any rate, we moved to a nice, cozy house in down town. Before we moved in, we asked to paint the walls because they were a faded yellow (man, we can't escape yellows...yellow water, yellow walls...enough with the yellow!). Camille picked out a nice brown color and away we went.
Adam hated every second of painting. He whined and complained and said he will never paint again. However, after all was said and done, he loved the color and admitted that he would help paint. We only had two days to finish the painting before we had to be out of our old house, so we painted for four hours the first night and six the next. We were exhausted, but the house looks nice. Adam was so excited to almost be done he did a paint dance. Camille thought it made him look a little limp of wrist and told him never to do it again.
Here is our living room with all our stuff in it, and the walls fully painted. Looks cozy, doesn't it?
The room where we weren't able to do anything is the family room (we are only renting, and were told not to paint it). It is a large room, but the walls are a bit too brown. Adam has called it the Wonka room, the dirt room, the chocolate factory, dog poop room, the underground, and that ugly room that smells bad. Note: The previous owners had large dogs that shed a lot!! They also smelled bad. So, the carpets had a distinct odor. We have sprayed and cleaned a lot, so the smell isn't so bad...only a slight gag occurs upon entry.
This a view into the kitchen and dining room. This is where we were painting in the previous pictures. It is a nice place and we are very happy here. We really enjoy drinking water from the tap, showering, and doing laundry where our clothes don't have a yellow tint. Anyway, sorry there aren't more pics of the house, but once we get a bit more moved in, we will post some. Note: Camille's purse is very green!! Kind of like, where's Waldo for purses.
Just for fun, we made them feed each other cake like when they were first married. It was very funny!!
