August rolled around and brought with it more work. It was time to start painting. As much as I enjoy painting - and I do - there was no way I was going to manage the entire addition on my own. So I decided to call in some reinforcements. They came in the form of Nick's mom, my mom, my cousin Scott and his girlfriend/my friend, Leslie. It was a loonngg day - but we knocked out the entire addition.
I love my friends and family!
Leslie
(she really wasn't pleased when I got out the camera. Neither were Nancy and my mom, but they managed to avoid me. Leslie, however, was a better sport!)
Scott
Want to hear something funny?
Half way through the day, I learned that Scott volunteered his services because he thought I helped him paint the law office he opened a couple years ago. Imagine his reaction when I informed him that it wasn't me. My mom and brother had helped him - but Connor a newborn at the time so I hadn't. Tee hee.
Nick was the only brave enough to do the painting that required ladder.
While the adults worked inside, the kids played outside. Treyvin kept himself busy by building a wall out of bricks we had lying around. A future contractor perhaps?
Taylie was introduced to the joys of spending hours upon hours in the dirt. She was a (dirty) happy girl!
A tired boy.
