Lots of Painting, Beach time, Horses and Football...

Today started early with breakfast out with a family breakfast at Litchfield Restaurant. It is amazing how it is not crowded that the main summer season is over.

After a quick trip to ACE Hardware, we arrived home and started to paint. Our goal is to paint every room in our house the same color...Stonington Gray by Benjamin Moore (we also thought we would have this done all of this by now...obviously we are not painters because it takes forever to prep and then paint...lesson learned)
 
Before today we had painted 3 bedrooms, Norah's bathroom and one coat in the den/family room area. After tomorrow we will have to add the list: the den/family room second coat and two coats on the trim (white) and kitchen. All that is left is the dining room, living room, foyer, hallway and our bathroom. Aaaaahhhhhh! Oh well....at least the rooms we are in the most are looking good!
 
We also got a new table in our breakfast area that is so great! Loving it....it is large enough for eating and doing work stuff.
 
Well Jeff did take Norah to the beach today while I was painting away...they had a blast and made new friends. She loved every minute with her Daddy! :)
 
Another exciting thing is we signed Norah up for Horseback riding lessons. She has mentioned it a couple of times and a friend of ours is doing it so we have our first one next Saturday at the Wachesaw Equestrian Center. She is very excited about it so I hope she loves it!
And a Saturday in September would not be complete without lots of football action. It has been nice to have different games on in the room while we paint away. Now I'm off to do one more coat on the part of the baseboards....
