24 Paint Samples
Choosing paint colors was the part I’ve been dreading most about this kitchen renovation. Any indecisive person can relate to my nightmare: having to choose from 17 million colors. I’ve been scouring Pinterest for weeks now and had a list of colors I wanted to try so when I left Home Depot on Saturday with 12 paint samples, I was pretty confident that I would have at least one color that I liked. After all, I only had 5 paint samples for the outside of the house and chose one almost immediately.

Blog Book | Rwanda
*This post is NOT sponsored. I paid full price for this book. While I wouldn’t turn down a free one, I’m simply sharing because I enjoyed the company!

I had a couple long 12 hour days and I’m so glad it’s over! I didn’t get home until almost 9:00 o’clock Friday night and as soon as I got home, I crashed. Cory was so sweet and had dinner waiting for me. I was almost too tired to eat hibachi but I suffered through.

After a crazy past couple of weeks working on the kitchen, lots of long nights and a ton of tension, I figured what better time to get some things off my chest and have a good laugh? Two birds with one stone. I confess… A few weeks months ago, I caught Cory feeding Einstein and Hampton jelly beans and his reasoning was “well, they like them.” Our dogs have some pretty ridiculous nicknames…Hammy {pun intended. he’s a porker}, Hampy, Hampytown, Loud Mouth McGee, Stein, Steinburg syndrome, Speggy…
