Weekend at Grandpa and Grandma's


Last weekend we sent Grace to my parent's house for 2 nights. At first I wasn't that excited about doing it but I'm glad that we did. We really needed to get some stuff done around the house and we know it's good for Grace to get used to (and she LOVES it) spending time around her family even if we aren't there. I just don't really like to give Grace up for the night or even much time at all.

The weekend started out with my dad picking her up on Friday. Then she went home with him, ate dinner, rode the lawn mower and went to bed. Saturday was a busy day helping my parents clean at their church, giving animals (toy ones) baths, playing outside, doing crafts, and squeezing in a nap. Sunday, Grace went to church with my parents and stayed for brunch at the church and then they brought her back to our house. Apparently she told them she didn't want to come home and just wanted to go to Grandma and Grandpa's house.

While she was gone we did some painting. Remember the hole in the wall? We finally painted that hallway. The unfortunate part was we used the wrong kind of paint. Just so you know there is a difference between flat paint and semi-glossy paint. So, my dad ended up repainting the hall for us on Sunday after dropping Grace off (I'll spare you the story about why my dad painted because it is long and boring. But, we were appreciative of his help.) We also installed a few handles on cabinets that the previous owners never installed. And finally we went out to eat. O yeah and we managed to take care of Caleb during this whole process:)
