A 'milestone' for us


These two pictures probably don't mean much to anyone else. About three or more years ago we put new windows in our son's room. For various reasons we never got the trim, etc. finished - until tonight. The walls are painted, the ceiling is painted AND the windows are finished being trimmed. We are hoping to go pick our son up tomorrow and I wanted very much to have his room not only painted but back in order before we leave for the airport.

We have also got the underlayment on the floor in the hopes that maybe, just maybe, we can get the carpet down as well real soon. It would be so nice to have his room in order when he gets here.

We did get a chance to talk to him for a couple of minutes or so. He hopes to fly out from Atlanta into a nearby airport. We don't yet know when he will be getting here so I tried to get as much done as possible today. Actually my hubby did most of the 'window' work. All I really did was to paint it after he finished putting the trim on. Since the house is a block house the walls are rather wide so it took a little bit more work than in a wood frame house. BUT, the windows are done! Whoopee!

I need to get some sleep so will share more later.

Bringer of Peace

I'm sure you're thrilled to have your son home! We'll be watching for updates. Nice windows to go with the beautiful flowers.
