We're FINISHED painting the interior!!!

Hallelujah! We spent one week and a day painting all day to get the entire house finished on time!  My dad came and sprayed the primer throughout the house and sprayed the white on the ceilings and closets.  Then Kevin and I went in and painted. At first I was cutting in with a paintbrush and I must say I was pretty awesome at it.  Then Kevin got a little tool called the Accubrush.  It's AMAZING! It does all the work for you with cutting in.  I recommend it if you want nice clean lines, look on Amazon, that's where we ordered ours from, you can also watch videos about it on youtube.  We finally found the perfect grey for our downstairs.  The problem with grey is that when you get it on the wall it can look blueish or even purplish.  So, I recommend getting samples and trying them out first. We ended up getting four samples and finally found 'the one'.  We went with Behr paint for the interior. I will list the colors under the pictures.
The finish truck has arrived and will be unloaded TOMORROW! We are in the home stretch people! We are so excited to finally move into our dream home.  The first to be installed are the cupboards I believe. I will try to get out there to take pictures any chance I get.  On to the pics...
