We have carpet!

Dad installed carpeting today in all three of the kids' bedrooms. It's a wonderfully dark tan color. I think it's perfect for a child's room. It should hide any stains nicely. 
Roll Bar "Full Throttle" is the carpet

Flooring in the great room

Today we put down the flooring in the great room. After looking at the flooring in the master bedroom, we realized it was going to be too dark for the main living space. We went with a much lighter flooring in that area as a result.
Here is hubby putting the underlayment together. 

Great room all done. The flooring is called Chatham Oak.

Main Living Space is painted

Today, we painted the main living space of the house. Since we've went with a living room/kitchen combo called a great room, we had to choose a more pastel shade of color than I normally would pick. I think the colors look great.
This color is called December Dawn. It's a very muted blue-grey.

This color is called Kangaroo Tan. 

Here is a picture of the transition between the two colors. See how pale of colors they are?

Flooring, closets, and fans! (Oh my!)

The weekend has been a BUSY one for the house project. Not only did we paint the bedrooms, but we installing closet shelving in the kids' rooms, ceilings fans, outlets, and the flooring in the master.

Paint!

Over the weekend, we painted all the bedrooms. We painted two on Friday and the other two yesterday. Today was a bunch of randomness for work.
 Little Miss Sunshine's room. It's as bright and sunny as she is.  Color is: Lemon Pound Cake
 Little Man's room. His favorite color is blue, so a blue bedroom it was! Color is: Snowdrop
 Miss Attitude's room. She wants a Minecraft theme room, so this is her base color. Color is: Cabbage Green.
Master Bedroom. We just adore the color of our one cat, so we wanted something close to his coloring. We found it. Color is: Classic Silver.
