Jakes favorite thing..
Notice the water guns...boys...
Jon had a few friends in this weekend and it was full on boys weekend. They immediately broke into competition and did not stop until they left. It began with a game of Uno that seemed to last hours, PIG with Jake's mini-basketball net, pool games, cards, Uno again I think, more pool games and they ended the night with a six hour game of Poker. They are gamers that is for sure. Jon had a wonderful time and it was nice to see him enjoying guy time. Jake and I stayed busy running much needed errands and I painted the kitchen! We had a very nice man named Sam from A-1 Painting come and take down our wallpaper. I am SOOO thankful that we did not try it ourselves. What a job and what a mess! Our kitchen just looks 10 years younger just from removing the wallpaper. I love painting, but it is definetely more time consuming with Jake running around. I have been working on the kitchen at night and during nap times and finally I am 90% finished. We have blue and white counter tops that are not my favorite, but I'm trying to work with them. SO, my plan is to do a yellow, blue and white kitchen. I love plaids and toile so I'm going to try and work those in somehow too. I wanted to do a pretty yellow on the walls and then do blue and white accents. Yellow is tricky! I looked at samples for a few days before picking the right color. I wanted it to be bright but not too bright. Now that it is up... I think I picked a good one. The kitchen looks so much bigger and brighter. Now, on to my next project... picture colleague in the playroom.
