Let there be light!

Steve has been on a light kick lately.  He first put a new light pole in our front yard.  The other one had lost some of the glass around the light bulb.  So Steve got a new one, which is black, then painted the light pole to match.  It definitely gives off a lot more light now.

Since Steve put can lights in our family room, we've been wanting to put more can lights in the house.  We ordered 6 inch can lights this time, instead of 4 inch, since we were putting them in 2 rooms with vaulted ceilings.  Steve put the 6 inch can lights up in our bedroom first.  We are going to put a ceiling fan in the middle as well, to especially help circulate air in the Summer.  We are just trying to decide on the one we like.  It's amazing to have light, especially during the winter months.

Bedroom lights!


Steve then put can lights in our formal living room.  We wanted more light in there as well, since we only had lamp light, like all the other rooms in our house.
Figuring out where to put the lights.  Now all done.  It's so nice to finally have light!

We are loving all the light in our house!  I'm so thankful for Steve and his "skills" to be able to fix up our house and make it more of a home for us.  We are working on our half bathroom now as well.  I'll update when we're done.
