Kitchen Complete!!!

Modern Art? No this was a wall from the kitchen when we bought the house. Mud-pie Wall.



Before:

After:

A dream and several pieces of sand paper, many coats of paint, many late nights, two pregnancies, an entire book on CD, putting the project aside in order to do other important things like rocking babies and reading books and sending the kids away to play with friends later...



Was it worth it! YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It all made a very happy place even happier. I still love every window in this room (even though or because they regularly get spattered with bits of Dylan's dinner, the boys kisses and hand prints as they look for birds).

NOBODY TOUCH A THING! We're not going to eat here, play here, make messes here, push cars through the chairs here...well, for at least a few hours anyway.
