In an effort to complete our goal of finishing repainting the downstairs by summer we have now completed the living room, dining room (minus a few touch-ups), and we have now moved into the family room. The living room and dining room we kept the same colors but the family room is going through a complete color transformation. The family room is currently two shades of blue but soon, it will be two shades of green. This might sound easy but there are almost as many shades of green as there are of white...it is VERY hard to decide!!! Also, in the family room Jim has chipped out all of the tile in front of the fireplace and he is replacing them with brand new, different, tiles. Many of the old tiles where chipped or broken...this has become more work than expected.

Here are the greens that we decided to go with...what do you think?

We did take a break from home improvements for Super Bowl XLII, New England Patriots (16-0) vs. New York Giants (10-6) and to EVERYONES amazement the Giants won. Well, everyone was amazed except me. My father has a great knack for accurately selecting the winner of the super bowl...whoever he says will win is bound to lose. I called my father on Sunday morning and he told me that there was no way that he could see the Patriots losing so, there you go; I know the Giants were a shoe in. We watched the Super Bowl at our friends Ed and Stella's and in the middle of the game there was an unexpected snow storm...here are the pictures.
