Graduation, Overdue Projects and a Little More Sanity

I did something amazing!  I finally finished my bachelor's degree!  I graduated with a 4.0 GPA and the honor of summa cum laude from BYU-I!  With all that education I still cannot spell bachelor or  summa cum laude, though.  Some people just cannot be taught.

With my free time, I started some projects around the house.  I started by painting my kitchen chairs which I have been dreaming of replacing for years.  A couple coats of spray paint made me fall in love with them, though!  Apparently, it was just the color I hated.

I've also hated my kitchen floor for years now, as well.  Who thinks a cream colored floor with gray scratch designs would look anything but dirty? Freshly scrubbed it still looked grimy.  I decided to replace it with hardwood laminate.  Michael started the project with me, but I pretty much took over.  I laid most of it while he was at work.  I ended up doing the hall, kitchen, and living room.


See how much prettier it looks!? And my pretty white chairs!?  I'm in love with the look.  I also painted that small wall next to the fridge with blackboard paint and repainted my other walls to make them look a little cleaner.  I still have a little bit of trim to put back up, but I am so pleased with the results.  After I finish the house I'm not sure what I am going to do with my free time.  I'm going to need a new project. Maybe run for president!
