For Katie's birthday we celebrated "Princess-style" and even Grandpa and Grandma got in on the action and the dressing up! We had a royal ball, royal scavenger hunt and royal banquet. (I think the thing with princess-thinking is that EVERYTHING has to be royal!) All the princesses were given tiaras upon entering the castle! Most of the food was pink! Katie told me today that she liked the scavenger hunt from her birthday--for all the moms out there you know how great it is that after one month she even remembers that she had a special birthday party!
This week I thought it would be fun to tackle an outdoor project that has been on the list since Bret and I had our brainstorming session in January. It seemed manageable to accomplish re-staining the deck in a couple of days. I have heard that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over while expecting a different result. This week I think it's possible that I meet this definition! (Every time we do a new home improvement project, its taken more time than expected...why I thought this time would be different!) Well, anyway, I started with pressure washing on Monday. On Sunday afternoon, one week later, Bret and I were putting the finishing touches of the second coat of stain! The project is now done--except I still have to put everything back on the deck that we keep there. I'll take care of that tomorrow. I think we're done with projects for a while!!!
