September 7-September 10 :) Or something like that :)

I can't remember for sure what days each of these things were done... I'm getting really bad at this whole keeping up on the blog thing.. I think it's because a lot of the things we do don't really look like a whole lot so I figure they aren't picture worthy :) But I believe these things happened between September 7 and September 10 :)

Todd built some closets so that we could actually start putting more things away :) I think they turned out great! He made really good use of the limited space the closets had and made them look really clean and nice :) Go him! :)

These are pictures of the bedroom closet, the shelves and hanger rods ( I don't know what they are called so that's what I'm going to call them) are on both sides when you walk in the front of the closet :) I think it looks way nice and it makes it easy to see all of the clothes :)

You're probably wondering what in the world this is a picture of..but everyone who knows me knows this is our bug/flightless fruit fly closet for the frogs :) Todd cut the wood so that it would have the nice U shape to it and make it easy to access everything in the under the stairs weirdly deep closet :) it looks awesome, especially for a bug closet :)

My mom and dad came up on Saturday the 10th and helped us get some of the painting done! Now all that we have left are the two bathrooms, the office, and a lot of the trim :) we're getting there haha

We painted (ok my dad painted) the upstairs second bedroom blue, the same color as the two front main rooms, it looks really nice!

We also painted the kitchen! and while my dad was up painting the blue bedroom my mom and I were working on the trim and Todd was finishing up the shelves :) Then my dad came down and we got the kitchen painted, I am way happy with the way the color looks. The color in this room is Olivewood and I was a little nervous because it's darker than the other colors we've been using but I LOVE it, especially with the old white trim! Once I get the cabinets painted and antiqued and we get the floor tiled I think it will be one amazing kitchen! :) It's hard to get a good picture of it because it looks different in every light..but you'll get the jest of it and if no you'll just have to come visit some time to see it in person :)

I will take some more pictures and get them up by the end of this week :) Pictures of trim and a slightly more organized house *very slight* are to come!
