Productive Weekend

It's finally done, our house is painted! It's only taken 5 months! I've learned that things take A LOT longer when you have a baby. I knew we had to get it finished because the weather is getting colder. On Saturday both Monte and I painted. He painted the places I refused (or was scared) to paint.









Isabella watched, and thought Daddy looked so funny up on the roof!



On Sunday, Monte stayed inside with Isabella because the weather wasn't very good. I started painting as soon as we got home from Church and finished right before it got dark. I didn't mind painting the actual house, but the back porch was a pain. I felt like I was getting nowhere, and then a little voice in my head said "offer it up" (I'm pretty sure it was my mom's voice, I heard that a lot growing up) :)




I can't even describe what a good feeling it is to get this done, now I feel like I can relax without having that in the back of my mind all the time.

Hey - I heard "offer it up" countless times growing up too! (Actually, Mom STILL says that to me!)
