The ceilings are done!!

Yesterday we put the final coat of white paint on the ceilings in the kids' rooms! (Never mind that we still have eight walls to paint with color, plus closets, doors, and woodwork...) The rooms originally had "popcorn" texture which we scraped off. We then primed the nearly-bare wallboard, sprayed the new "orange peel" texture on, primed the new texture, and finally put the last coat of paint on - whew!

Here's Jeff working the sprayer to put the new texture on:

It's so nice to have this much done - now on to the next steps! (Hey, it's a great way to kill time while you're waiting to hear news from Colombia!) ;-)
