Projects!!

We are knee-deep in projects at our house right now. Steve has been working on painting Cambry's room, which is so exciting!! We were wanting a light, soft pink color. We headed out to Lowes to get some swatches and there were a lot of great choices (so we thought). We decided between 2 to get samples of to try on the wall and woah, they were bright! So, we went with 2 others--got 2 more samples to try on the wall & they were way too bright also. We were a little frustrated b/c what was showing on the swatches was not coming out on the walls. How hard could it be to find a "soft pink"?? My mom suggested trying Sherwin Williams where they can custom blend paints. We finally found our paint after they blended a couple together. YAY!! So, Steve has been working hard on painting and he is also replacing the baseboards in there, too. It's coming together though!!

In the midst of all this, we are also having wood floors put in our formal living & dining room. This has always been something we wanted to do, but there has always been something ahead of it. We decided now is the time to do it before I quit working and before Cambry is here. So, it kind of just all came together and they came out on Monday to start working on it and they finished yetserday afternoon! We really like how it turned out!

I'm going a little crazy with all the projects & out-of-place things in our house, but I know that it will all start coming together soon! I guess you could say there is a little nesting going on at the Hodgson house! :)
