Paint! Encouraged! Thank you, God...

Happy Father's Day (a little late)!  Rocking chairs...

Daniel wanted his own turn!


This red-tailed hawk killed a baby bunny...This guy hangs around here a lot...

Rabbits gave our newest green beans a hair cut...our rope
-- aka, snake -- doesn't seem to be fooling them!
Sunflowers are starting to take off!

Marigolds

The watermelon plants are also starting to take off...the cantalope (top of pic) just don't seem to
be growing so I just gave them a dose of organic fertilizer to see if that will help...

The radishes grew faster than we expected -- and faster than we can eat them! 
These are getting too big!
Our first green bean plants are getting little beans!  We LOVE fresh green beans!

A job for the kids -- clean off the extra exterior trim
that we didn't need so we can return it...

A late night trying to clean up after the drywall guys so we can start painting in the morning.

Drywall dust is such a mess!  Trying to keep a little humor...

Jasen has been a huge blessing to us and we thank God for that! 
Scott and he loaded up the trailer he brought over and recycled a load of aluminum siding.

Jasen priming the walls with the sprayer...

Scott getting ready to change buckets for the sprayer...

Primed and ceiling painted...

Foyer primed and ceiling painted...

Family room/breakfast area ready for paint...
Here we go -- laundry room getting painted -- brown teepee...ie, tan...
It's amazing how much these guys are getting done today! 
The right tools makes such a difference!


Jasen sprays and Scott back-rolls...

The "stilts" are a great idea!  It really helps to reach near
the ceiling without having to bother with ladders.

Going back over the ceiling to paint the tan overspray from the walls...
"Ocean View" blue in the school room/library/office...

Mary Beth was so kind to watch the kids ALL DAY today while we painted...
I picked them up and brought them over to see all that we accomplished
today (Daniel fell asleep in the van on the way over). 
They were excited to try on their own masks!
