Closing day

On Tuesday the 21st of April at 8 frickin AM we closed, after fighting rush hour traffic at every turn. After closing we grabbed some McDonalds and had planned to go straight to the house to begin working but Geoff needed a "20 minute" (2 hour) nap before we got started. Finally, around noon, we got to the house.

Geoff continued sanding the fireplace.
And Steph went to work on that pesky ivy (she needed a tan).

After we had each had enough of our individual jobs we decided to tackle paint in the master bedroom. First Steph finished patching the holes in the hallway.

And then we got to work on priming the red master bedroom!

After a while we got on a roll and continued on to the hallway ...

After dinner we recruited Sara to help paint.
Seeing a little color (that's not red, pink or blue).While the girls added some color Geoff patched holes in the "hot pink tent room".

After patching Geoff got to priming (2 coats!) while Steph and Sara moved down the hallway towards the living room. Before the night was over Sara tested out the door and trim color on the front door.
