O Happy Day :)

As most of you know, our family lives in the parsonage next to the church where Larry is the pastor. I love our home and have spent the past year making it ours. I asked the deacons if it would be alright to take down the wallpaper so that I could paint our kitchen. This past week Mr. Gene (a church member) came over and spent two day transforming our kitchen. He painted it while I was in Charlotte. I am so thrilled with the update. :)

If you have never taken down wall paper, I'll let you know. It's a tedious task. Actually the wall paper came down easily. It was the glue left behind that was the problem.

For the bargain hunters. I recently purchased a beautiful chandelier at a lighting store that was going out of business. It was originally priced at$592. I paid $72 :) Gotta love a bargain :)

The messy process of taking down the wall paper

Please ignore the mess on the table. I was trying to do this post :)
