Happy Halloween!






We had so much fun on Halloween this year....and yes, it is by far my LEAST favorite holiday so this says a lot! Emerson was a dalmatian puppy (my mom made the costume for my brother Adam when he was her age) and Wyatt was a monkey. Emmy was all about her costume...wanted to wear it all the time and knew exactly what she was and what her little brother was dressed up as. We took the kids to old town Parker this year, they shut down Main Street and had the kids trick or treat at the store fronts...just perfect. Emmy had too much fun, but she had an encounter with a scary costume that we called "Dr. Death" and from that point on she was over it....don't blame her! After trick or treating we came home to some yummy chili in the crock pot and the few trick or treaters we get out here in The Pinery. I will say Emmy would jump off the couch every time the door bell rang....she loved giving out the candy!

Before and After....





We did it! We had our kitchen cabinets painted an off white color and love, love, love them! Who would have thought that 25 year old cabinets could look so good! It makes the new island we put in last year look amazing too. I just ordered a pendant light to go above the island...cant wait to have that installed to finish off the "new" kitchen. Along with the kitchen we also had the bar, powder bath, jack & jill bath and master bath cabinets done. This project only took the company one week to complete....it's like a new house here! We have done SO much work to this house of ours over the last 7 years of living here, but this remodel (besides finishing the basement) has been the biggest visual change. Steve and I both are so happy with the end result. And you know me, I always love a little decorating project (hey I am a stay-at-home mom!!), so I have a few more ideas that I am throwing on Steve now that this project came out so well :)!!!!
