Family Picture Wall

I have been wanting to do a family picture wall for a long time and I finally got around to doing it.

Each of the pictures shows the progression of how our family has grown in the last 13 years. I love looking at these pictures and remembering the kids being so little!

In the middle I added the verse Ps 126:3 it says, "The Lord has done great things for our family and our hearts are filled with Joy."

The "G" came from HL and I spray painted it with a hammered metal spray paint.

I just love how it all turned out!

Home Tour - Dining Room

The home tour continues....

This is our dining room.

If you are at the front door, this room is on the left.

The paint color is called Truly Olive by Glidden. I absolutely LOVE it!!!! I also used it on the kitchen island to help tie the two rooms together.

Paint Color - Dining Room

In our old house, we used Laura Ashley Olive 4 for our dining room walls and I have loved it ever since! I want to do the same in our new house.

I have since noticed several people around blogland have also used it. I snagged this picture from Rhoda at Southern Hospitality. She used it in her kitchen.

I can't wait to finally get started decorating! I know we won't be painting for a while (at least 3 or 4 months), but I wanted to go ahead and pick out the colors so I can start buying things we need to furnish the house as I see them on sale.

Thankfully I have a lot of things already for this room since we used it at the old house!

Dining Room

I saw this picture of a dining room that is pretty close to what ours will be like.

When you come in the front door, you will go to the left through a large doorway to enter the dining room. It will have large windows facing the front yard and 2 smaller windows overlooking the driveway side of the house. There will be another doorway that leads to the kitchen.
