Hays Home Projects

We bought our house a four months ago and have been trying to do little things to it here and there since we moved in. Thankfully we really didn't need to do too much, we have just painted John Whitten's room and installed some recessed lighting in our den. I have tried not to ask too much of Shaun because he is still studying for his CPA, and I know that he doesn't need me adding home projects to his To Do List. After church on Sunday Shaun took out our one (old) hallway light and replaced it with three can lights. It looks so good, and really gave us a lot more light in our hall. Today Shaun painted Lillian's bedroom. We had asked her a couple of weeks ago what color she wanted to paint her room and she said "purple". I wanted to give her what she wanted but didn't want her room to be some crazy purple color. We took her to the paint store and we picked out a light/ very sweet purple and it looks great!! I am so happy that Shaun was able to get so much done this weekend, and love all the progress we are making in our home. 

of course everything we do is a family effort

*Thanks Shaun for working so hard to make our home beautiful! We love you!

I love Lillian's work outfit. That's how I do my home repairs too! :)
