Tomorrow Is The Big Day

We've been anxiously awaiting tomorrow to arrive. It's the big painting day! My son, daughter in law and two grandsons will be here bright and early. My son is painting my daughters room and her bathroom. Don't know if the grandsons will be helping since they are 13 and 11 years old. I'm sure they will be a big help for some things but actual painting is a question. It will be nice having my daughter in law here for a visit while the boys are busy working. My daughter is so excited to have her room painted. She's chosen a very pretty purple for her bedroom and a very light yellow for her bathroom. This is my birthday gift to her and my son volunteered to do the painting so I wouldn't have to pay someone to come and do it. We were out last week furniture shopping/looking. She picked out a very pretty grey bedroom set which should look really nice with the purple walls. Grey is so popular now. I'm trying to squeeze in as much today as I can....vacuuming, laundry, dishes and a few tv shows. With the holiday weekend ahead and the painting tomorrow it's going to be a busy few days. Thankfully the weather looks nice.

She's got a great color scheme going. The bedroom set will look awesome in there. Don't underestimate 11 and 13-year-olds. They can work with a paintbrush too. You've got a busy day today to prepare for tomorrow. It's good the weather will be nice. A good way to end the day with a bbq.

I think the grey furniture will look lovely with the purple walls.

It nice when you can get someone to paint a room for you. I don't like painting with a big brush, or painting over my head... My daughter had a purple bedroom when she was young, never thought of yellow for the bathroom but in my head i can see the two looking beautiful.

Painting is always a new change and a fresh breath for any room so here's hoping it all goes well for you!

It sounds like your daughter has good taste in colors. I'm sure she will enjoy the new room and furniture. Enjoy your time with your family tomorrow even though lots of work going on.

Our son and his wife have a lot of grey and a lot of white furniture in their home. It is popular. I think that this is such a thoughtful and loving gift. And its not just from you, your son and grandsons coming over to pitch in is adding to it. I'm sure that you'll have a wonderful weekend.
