What a productive weekend! Saturday morning started with a trip to the paint store - We finished up the picture frame molding and then started painting. Two days later, we're so close to being finished and it looks great (if I do say so myself)! We decided at the last minute to replace our heating vents in the wall instead of just painting over them - only to find out that the new intake vent is slightly bigger than the original - DOH! Which means we need to get a small hand saw and trim one piece of molding...or, rip that piece off the wall and recut, which we're hoping to avoid. I'm so happy with how it turned out!
We did manage to fit in some fun in between our hard work - We kicked off the weekend with happy hour on Friday to celebrate my friend, Chris's 30th birthday. On Saturday we trekked out to Fairfax to go to Wal-Mart and Costco - and for dinner at Tony's Pizza (so good!). We headed over to Chuck & Kristen's Saturday night to check out the pictures from their three week trip to Africa. It was amazing how up-close they were to so many incredible animals - Great pictures!
