Productive Father's Day Weekend

Man alive! I can’t believe we just had that weekend. A couple weeks back we decided that this weekend is when we were going to start/finish the guest bathroom. Sorry it was Father’s Day weekend. Oh well
Friday we went up to Garden Ridge to get some frames for the autographs for TJ’s room, new pillows, and curtains for the living room.
Saturday was the crazy day. We bought sinks and counter tops for both the bathrooms last year but only got our bathroom done. We had to get this other counter top installed. Well after demo on Saturday the mirror that we were just going to hang back up broke a little on the corner, which required us to buy a new one and also some texture to make the area that wouldn’t be covered pretty. Since that had to dry we started working on the curtains and new rod that we decided to buy with some of our garage sale money. We had to stain the rod and get it hung up. I got the curtains looking nice and hung. Then we forgot about getting ties to pull the curtains back. Tim put a coat of white paint on the newly textured wall, then we headed out to Joann’s. Bought the ties and headed back home. Got the curtains fixed and pretty then proceeded to finish the bathroom. I started painting the yellow while Tim started to mow the yard. One he was done we went outside to cook and let TJ swim. After dinner and getting TJ in bed we hung the mirror and cleaned everything up. It was such an insane day with moving back and forth between projects. There were messes that needed to be picked up, trips to the store, laundry started and chancing a toddler around that made it even more exciting.
Sunday Tim planned to do nothing. Well laundry still needed to be finished, folded and put away and some of the rooms still needed to be cleaned and things all ready to go for the week. Since Tim folded all the laundry on Mother’s day, I did all the laundry by myself. I took a short nap during the US Open then got to work. I got the kitchen cleaned, TJ’s room cleaned, laundry finished and put all away, dinner made, our room cleaned, swept the floors, and re cleaned the kitchen from dinner. Ahhhh. I was SOOO glad to sit down that evening. It’s a good thing I got a nap in there or I wouldn’t have been able to make it.

I’ve got more cleaning planned tonight and more projects planned for the weekends ahead.

I think all in all Tim had a good Father’s day. He got the new iPhone on Friday and new shoes for Father’s day. He got to play with TJ a lot and relax a ton.
