More snow day adventures

Today Alea and her BFF (Macy) had a 6 1/2 hour play date. Half of the time at Macy's house (who happens to be our neighbor) and the other 1/2 at our house. They got along really well and had a blast.

I started painting Alea's room today. I am painting it a light/mint green color. She is getting new furniture that my dad is making for her. She picked out a plum bedspread and decided she wanted this color for the walls. (I was thinking of painting the walls grey but the bag that had the comforter in it had a picture of the bedspread with light green walls so Alea wanted the green color.) The paint guy told me that the brand of paint I bought has a built in primer so I'd only have to paint over the pink walls once. WRONG...it is going to need 3 coats! My goal is to paint one wall per day so I don't mess up my back. I got 2 coats on one wall today.

I am using black, white and grey accessories in the room.
