Homemade Cupcakes

For a challenge on TwoPeas I baked homemade vanilla cupcakes. I used the recipe listed here http://52cupcakes.blogspot.com/2006_05_01_archive.html The Billy's Vanilla, Vanilla Cupcakes with Vanilla Buttercream Frosting. They turned out great. Tasted wonderful. Of course my decorating sucks but it was 10 pm and I wanted to go to sleep lol.

Living Room Update

Well the living room is almost done. The floor has it's last coat of poly on it (4 in total whew) Three walls are completely painted (3 coats dark paint sure is hard to get on perfectly lol) I have to do a final coat on one wall and touch up the other. We have started putting up the trim. The baseboard and crown molding are white so they look great with the brown paint. Hopefully we can get it done this weekend.

Pretty soon we are going to start doing our guest bath. I can't wait as it's going to be beautiful and old fashioned with marble floors and a claw foot tub.

We've also started framing out my dad's room (the second master bedroom) Pretty soon it's going to be ready for drywall and flooring.

When everything is all done on the inside the only thing we'll need are new windows and doors but there is not a big hurry on that as the ones we have are ok (Except in the kitchen but we will wait until the kitchen gets started to worry about that)

I will post pictures of the living room once all the tools etc are out of there and it's finished :)

Here are some before pictures. We cut the living room almost in half (it started out 20x20) and put in an extra bedroom.
