Painting

Jason and I were able to get a lot done this weekend at the house, a big thanks to both our parents for helping us. Dad and Andy brought up way too much stuff that I still had stored at home, that is taking up the vast majority of the garage. I don't think that it can all be mine. Then Friday night, Jason and I got some painting done. Early day Saturday I was back over doing some more painting and Jason headed out with his parents to pick up our washer and dryer in Paulding. My parents headed up and dad replaced the hideous light I absolutely hated, it was a pain in the butt, however much appreicated, mom did the cabinets in the kitchen, again pain the butt, she didn't mind though. Then Jason's parents got there and went to work also, no rest for the wicked. Yesterday, we were back at it again with the help of Jason's parents we got a whole lot done. The family room is close to being done, the kitchen is pretty much finished, our bedroom is almost finished, the buckeye room has the first coat and the dining room has the first coat. So, a good start for us and we will have a lot of time this weekend. So that is the good news....The bad news is that we were not able to go to our concert because once we got about 5 miles over the Michigan line we hit a sheet of ice and saw about 6 cars in the ditch. We would never had made it there on time, and with the road conditions may not have made it period, so we turned around disappointed, but went home and relaxed. So no Keith Urban for me :( Good idea though Jason! Oh yeah, and they shut our water off at the house, so it made things even better trying to clean up paint and stuff with no water. Luckily our apartment is only .2 away so we could make quick potty breaks. That is it for now from the Raikes. Have a great day!
