No rest for the weary on Sunday. We all met at the house that morning with coffee and enough sleep to try and wrap things up before everyone had to hit the road. We wanted to paint the front room (our final color of the weekend, Teepee Brown) and finish up the kitchen/den. Teepee Brown is a very soft, neutral brown which I think lightens the room and makes it feel cozy. (Ryan was skeptical of this one, but trusted me in return for the green in the kitchen/den. In the end we both really love it!)

| Notice the new texture spots, D & M Painting was nice enough to cover our little blemish for free! |

| Daddy did some serious cutting and base board work! Thanks so much! |
Unfortunately, because of all the rain we got this weekend (not complaining, what a blessing) the texture didn't dry quickly enough for us to paint this wall Sunday. But no worries, Ryan and I tackled that on our own on Tuesday.
Finally, Mommy and I ran to Home Depot to pick up a few things and she set us up with some precious pumpkins and a big maroon mum to add a homey feel and get our house ready for fall! Doesn't it look great?
And finally, what you've made it through these three lengthy posts for... the finished product! Here is the completed kitchen/den... still bare until this Saturday, October 15 when we make the official move. Thanks so much to all our family who helped us this past weekend. We had such a wonderful time and could not have gotten nearly as much done without you. You really helped us begin to make it feel like home. Love you so much!
