We spent last weekend down at Aimee’s house installing some new outlets and light fixtures on their second floor (bedrooms). The only downside was that the work was in the attic and the attic was the hottest room of the house – and the humidity sure didn’t help! But it was a good time, working with my Dad, brother-in-law and husband we got all the electrical done they wanted. My sister and mom bought some new plants and really filled out their garden beds. Ryan also took down a small pine tree for them that was leaning over the garage. All in all a very productive weekend.

Since then we’ve been working on stripping paint from siding. I got 3 pieces done Monday night and we got 6 pieces done last night. Doesn’t sound like much but it really is – considering we only have about an hour each evening. We’re stripping the paint and filling the nail holes. This weekend we’ll hit them with the sander quick and then put a coat of primer on them hopefully. That’s the plan anyway.

And we’re really crossing our fingers that our new windows come soon so that the following weekend we can install them! Speaking of which I should email Marvin Windows and see if they know anything.
