where DOES that week go?


Camille and Char with little Lydia. We went to Marshall's to get baskets for the newly painted dresser...

Before:

(they removed the bottom two drawers so they could put baskets in...)

After:




Yes, it's sitting in the kitchen/dining room. Looks lovely, better now than yesterday, ha. They dragged it out here to paint, and of course I helped them. They sanded it, primed it, and helped me paint it with a four dollar jar of Americana satin enamel from the craft store. I thought it rolled on beautifully.




Anyway...lots going on here, big surprise, huh? We're going to Ben and Ashley's house for dinner!

Thank you, Pam! I was rather surprised. But then it's a really old dresser, they don't make them like that anymore, unless you get a really pricey one, the top is wood, not laminate. The girls are excited, they are moving to a bigger bedroom since Joseph got married and moved out. He just has to come back home to move out the rest of his stuff, ha.
