Well, this week we mainly did one thing. Paint. This is Corah & Mary & Leah's wall before. We had never painted in the 11 years since our home was built. I am not much of a DIY (do-it-yourself) but I actually did most of this. It went a lot better, however, because Dallas was on vacation so he was home to help! Corah helped with painting the furniture.
Grafitti: "Joseph ZADER" ;-)
This was our growth chart. I copied it onto a long piece of rolled paper.
Monday we moved furniture and stuffed a lot of things in the closet. The girls slept on their mattresses in the living room for 3 nights.
We painted the walls, the bed, and a bookshelf.
the bookshelf
TA-DA!!! The finished product! Isn't it cute?! I NEVER would have picked these colors, but the girls love it! Notice, Leah is in the bottom bunk. {That means Mom & Dad get their own room for the first time since.... I don't know, its been a while!;-)} Oh, and I might add that it really looks like this, too. I didn't have to shove stuff out of the view of the camera or anything! {And if you believe that, I have some ocean front property for sale down in Arizona...} Ha-ha!
Let's see, what else did we do this week? Dallas & the boys fished... a lot! {While the paint was drying, of course!} We went to the drive-in movie Friday night, "The Green Lantern" and "Kung Fu Panda 2". The kids had their last homeschool softball game with a picnic on Saturday.
{Ain't he cute!}
It looks like you have been busy little beavers at your house. :)
