Color makes the world go around...

Where in the world would I be without friends? I know at least one place. In a house that was built in the 70's with the original wallpaper still in tact. My friends (and family) came out in full force this weekend to help paint. Big thanks to Amy for asking everyone--she knew if she left it up to my own devices she would be coming up and hanging out in the pineapple dining room a year from now. She has even been working overtime putting a fresh coat of red paint on the front door. I have the best friends in the entire world--Boadie,Scottie, Kiah, Cheryl, Kami, Mike Lawson, Jim McGill, Ju Ju, my mom, my new neighbors Jen and Todd (that's right--the new neighbors stopped by and grabbed paintbrushes--I am gonna love this neighborhood) Debbie brought food and watched kids. I even had Marleigh, Grace, Kate and Caroline doing a little . That being said....

The Sistene chapel hasn't had as many comments as the paint job of my new house. Everyone has an opinion. Whatever ever happened to the old adage if you can't say something nice..say nothing at all. I like color--yellow being my favorite--so sue me. One thing, nobody that helped paint the house had a negative word. (They probably did when I wasn't around--but that doesn't count) So THANK YOU!!!! to all my wonderful friends! I owe you big time!!

Tell ya what, I'll drink the beer and eat the pizza. How's that sound? (I'm a huge help.)

Since food and beverage are covered, can I bring dessert?

I am still on board with loving the bedroom color, myself! I think it's fun.

And I swear I did not mean to show up just as the work was getting finished. Although I doubt I'd have been much help if I had shown up earlier, considering the company I was in. I'd have been heading back up the street in disgrace, towing a paint-covered 20-month-old.
