Friday afternoon our contractor, Mike, calls me up and says were coming over tomorrow morning! (him and one of his guys and my dad) What time works better for you 8 or 9? 8 or 9?! 8 or 9?! ugh how about 11! haha obviously we went with 9. Well, while it was tough it was good motivation and things happened. Rot issues were addressed in the front pillar and the chimney area AND the 5 foot slider became a 6 foot slider. Walls cut out, slider put in and walls put back?? I dunno you can see in the pictures. I also was able to paint the last remaining cabinets in the kitchen, under the sink and next to the stove (while the girl slept). Oh and speaking of painting we decided to go a head and paint the family room a couple days ago. It was a sea foam green and will soon be the same oyster that it is through out the house. I only painted 2 walls and they still need to be cut in but its happening. I think either during tomorrows nap or Monday's nap I will paint the other walls and then Keith said he will cut in, but who knows maybe ill try to do it. eek! Wouldn't that be crazy? I do have to say, when I first started painting it was kinda really sad... but I think I might be improving =) !!!! I dunno, Im excited since I don't really contribute any other way at least the thing I am able to do I am actually able to do half way decent. Oh yeah and PS today was GORGEOUS!!! perfectly warm and everything probably around 70 not too hot but so nice!!! Going to keep it short, here are a few pictures of the days adventures:
Ok not from Saturday but I think it's a fun shot, I had JUST unrolled this rug that my mom had and instantly everyone was on it. Naomi was "swimming" on it and in this shot Dio jumped on the rug JUST as Ozzy shook and it startled him so he's in mid jump haha. I love this crazy family!
Marcos cutting out above the slider, not sure why off hand but apparently it was needed.
Everyone helping to put the "support beam" (don't know what else to call it)
Look in the previous picture there was about a foot of wall on the left hand side, now there isn't!
Not the greatest shot but new slider is in and working nicely :)
My cabinet that I painted
The doors I painted on the front yard grass in the warm 70 degree February sun, HA! seriously?!
Working on some rot
It's been "warm" here too- warm for Utah at least. Ben doesn't like it when I paint- he wants me to let him do it because I do a good enough job haha. I love the new look of the blog!
