What you’ve been waiting for: And on the back side: Pre-staining one side of the fence (Bj and Bill did this) because it will be impossible to get to once up (we’re not taking down Morris’s fence). And were is this going to go? Karen helping out. We took all the remaining hardware off the …

Party Time
Tonight we took a break from renovating and headed to a Luau thrown by one of my mom’s girlfriends. It was a blast! Mmmm the food was so good. Check out that fruit, yum, yum, yum! Back to work to work tomorrow.
Getting it Done
Need more paint mom? Not surprising since nobody goes through it as fast as you! Check the previous post, I crossed some things off, and added a few more.
Check your mail!
The first few swap packages have been sent out! And remember if your package is sent out on time you’ll be entered into a drawing for an awesome price by me! I haven’t been able to do much work on my cute little place because my floor guy has been MIA. Man, I don’t know …

If they don’t have a blog, or update infrequently, or you just want some more information, ask them. I know some people have given away their identity (oops) …
Baby things
Remember when I went to that crop on Friday, here is the project I made: It’s a cute little rainbow baby book for Violet (Michele and Brett’s baby). I figured her parents could put pictures in it or leave it blank. It’s hard to tell by the pictures but this is one of those Maya …
