What do you get the person that has everything? Well Kyle, Kelly, Tim and I decided to give my mom's living room a makeover, and surprise her with it this weekend. Mom has been staying with a friend while she is working such long hours for the holiday's, so we took advantage of that and got to work. Kyle started on Thursday night after he got off work and took the old tile down and rewired a light switch. Friday I dropped Spencer off at school and headed out to help out. My arms are sore from all the painting, but boy was it worth it, I love the new colors. Tim picked up Spencer and came out after he got off work, and he got to work on painting the end tables and where ever else he was needed. Then Saturday was a rush to get it all put back together(I'm sure dad did not think we were ever going to get his house back in order). Kelly did a great job getting the pictures on the wall and the furniture arranged. We had to make a couple calls to mom and give her a list of a few things we "needed" before she got home, just to buy us some more time. I worked cause we got it all done just in time for her to get home. She was, lets just say overwhelmed and super happy. Merry Christmas Mom, we love you!

Remember there were only white walls before. Kyle took before pictures but I have not got those yet, but I will try to add them for you to see what a BIG difference this was.
