I really try not to get too behind on my blog.... but it's been a very
busy few months so... it's happened. I will be catching up though! First off, my mom
came out the week we closed on our house and helped SO much! She is a
workhorse and if she hadn't come we'd still be working on all the
painting she did for the next two years. We tried to do a few fun
things, besides work, so the kids would be happy. But mostly we painted,
painted and painted some more! 
A trip to the zoo!
Brian "got" to do a bit of sheet rocking and finishing work. It was good practice and between he and my mom it turned out really nice. I'm grateful for a husband who is patient enough (and cheap enough) to want to learn how to do almost anything. This will come in handy has homeowners.
My mom painting the window in the girls room.
Scooter wasn't much help :)
Just before taking Naunie to the airport.
While the three adults were busy painting and stuff the kids were pretty creative with ways to entertain themselves!
We wish my mom could have stayed another week (or two...)!
