CAN you say CAN lighting?

FINALLY! This all started when the Gad's my cousins in DC bought their first home and they were supposed to be painting it when Jenna walked into the family room. She spotted holes in the ceiling...at first she was angry but after Justin pulled an all nighter she awoke to custom can lighting! Wow! I was envious!

That is how it goes doesn't it? You are happy with what you have until you see what someone else has done. Wow, I could do that! It is really THAT easy??? Well what do I have to buy?

All it took was Ben finally needing some light over the couch, maybe it was to read, maybe it was to see his beautiful wife in a brighter light, whatever it was....I have lights!!! Yippe!!! I want to stand on my roof top and say, Let there be light! I felt like Griswold's in the Christmas Movie where he ceremoniously clicks the switch and light spills out over the neighborhood. It is moments like these I am so proud of Ben. He didn't have me call someone out of the yellow pages or ask a friend to help and really had the friend do ALL the work. He did this, all by himself and his list of swear words. The lights are incredible, beautiful, and brilliantly bright! We do need to install a dimmer.


Check it out, thanks to the GAD's for being our inspiration!

Looks great!! What a difference lighting makes in a room. Dimmer is a must, Justin can tell Ben which ones he prefers.
