Home Improvement

"Does everybody know what time it is?!" That's right, we got out all the tools we needed and made our second bedroom into a bedroom...with flowers...and clouds...and...well...here's some pictures.

We got this paint for 5 bucks on the "oops" shelf at Home Depot.

TR worked hard to paint it just right.

He painted clouds...

and flowers...

Lots of flowers.

His favorite is the Sunflower. Mine is the giant pink one (go figure).

He did all of that freehand. He's pretty much amazing. We're also going to get one of those sun lamps from Ikea and put it on the wall too. I know it's meant for the ceiling, but we're gonna put it on the wall anyway. It's pretty much way cute!

Playing In The Water

Since it was such a nice day outside, TR decided to do some projects outside. He started stripping branches off the trees we cut down a few weeks ago, and he found this old hose that worked just fine when he hooked it up. So today he taught our puplings how to drink out of a hose.

Of course he had fun too!

He would act like the nice daddy, and get them a drink, and then when they were least expecting it, BAM! Hosed in the face! Not that they minded, lets be honest, but they needed hosed down anyway. Eventually Linus thought it was cool to come hide behind mommy. Needless to say- I got my fair share of wet.

We even had Old Faithful in our back yard!

We had some fun playing outside today. We're so lucky to have this house and this beautiful weather to play in. It's so fun! We're looking forward to many more playful days outside!

I made my first perfect gravy last night. That's all.
