pictures don't do it justice. really.

So, here are the long-awaited pictures of my newly-painted kitchen!  These pictures were taken just now (at 10 pm) so there is no natural light, which makes the color so much more beautiful, so I guess to get the real idea of just how amazing my kitchen is now, you have to come visit and see for yourself!  ;o)

The blue looks amazing with the white cabinets Dave painted!

The blue color is a few shades lighter than my wedding color blue.  :o)

Look how perfectly the paint swatch matches the wall. ;o)  (Even though it's more gray in the pic than it is in real life...)

Anyway, I am so grateful it's FINISHED!  Thanks so much to Mom, Dad, Dave, Clyde, and Ginny for their help!
