Light it up!

My husband is turning into quite the handy man.  Let's face it, we have pretty big laundry list of things we'd like to do to our house.  We don't plan on living here forever, but there are things that we need/would like to do before baby #3 arrives.  One of which is installing ceiling fans in the boys rooms.  Let's not get crazy, Scott didn't install fans, but it prompted us to really look at the pendant lighting while buying fans.

If you remember, we had a globe light over the sink.  It was ugly and it didn't function well.  The kitchen was very dark, because the globe was painted glass.  Why we didn't take it down a long time ago, we will never know.  Here is the old light, from an old picture.  It's not great, but either was the fixture.

After we got home from the store we decided it was time to get rid of the light.  We had to wait for naps to be over so we could enlist our cute helpers.

Once the newness of the project wore off, the boys when on to play while I helped Scott hang the light.  It is still taking Scott and I awhile to get used to the brightness and how low the lights hang.  I tend to think there is a balloon over the sink if I look that way quickly.  I do love the light and it's just amazing to think how much better the kitchen looks with this little change.
