President's Day work project

Oh, how I love a holiday! It's a great excuse to get a project or two done!
After Dan and the scouts put up flags in the neighborhood, they went and had a racquetball tournament at the local rec center. While they were gone, the girls and I did some house cleaning. That felt good!


In the afternoon, Dan got out the sand paper and wood putty and began sprucing up the trim on the windows.

We may be down to only 3 girls at home now, but they are such hard workers!
Here's Rachel and her paintbrush - putting primer on the trim.

Jessica got in the action too.

I couldn't resist this shot. Such cuties!!
It was such a beautiful sunny day that the girls got some sun on their little white legs. Maybe that's why they didn't mind helping out on the windows!!

Afterwards, we promised them a movie, The Lightning Thief, and a DQ blizzard. The movie was sold out, so we got our blizzards and came home and watched the edited version of the Bachelor. (So much drama - makes me sick!) We had to give out a raincheck to the girls for the movie - later this week.

Yeah well even if you DID have all four girls at home... one of those girls probably STILL wouldn't have come out to help, let's be honest ;)
