Painting the Apartment!
Saturday was such a busy day: in the morning we dumped over 500 lbs. of garbage at a construction dump near us. Some of it flew off the truck on the way there but we drove back and picked it it up; no worries :-).

Mainly its just trash that we’ve accumulated over the past two years and a lot of Tim’s stuff from his previous house that we never went through.
After that we headed over to our apartment. We had originally planned to only clean but we were convinced that we should paint so we used some old paint from my parent’s and pastor, and bought some. We could not be happier with the outcome. I LOVE it. Here are some before and after shots (feel free to click to enlarge):
Bedroom:
Bathroom (my mom cleaned the whole bathroom- go mom!):
Kitchen:
Living Room (the cove):
So I wanted to do an official THANK YOU!! to every one who helped: my family who without we really couldn’t have painted; Robb and the kids (Johnny, Matt, Chris & Kathleen) who did a lot of the cleaning; Daddy Don- I have never seen a more persistent painter in my life. He was amazing. And of course God. We had no idea what we were doing and even though we decided to paint last minute everything worked out perfectly.
Here are some more work photos:
