Spring Break '07








Where did we spend our spring break? Florida? Palm Springs? Nah..we stayed home and worked on the house like good homeowners should. We alternated between putting this nifty brown and white checkerboard pattern on the kitchen floor...


and finishing some more wood in one of the bedrooms upstairs. The kitchen floor was a pain...two coats of primer, two coats of white deck paint, laying out the checkerboard pattern, taping off and adding the brown squares, and finally three coats of polyurethane. That put the kitchen out of commission for most of the week so we ate lots of take out. While waiting for the layer to dry, we went upstairs and did some staining the was supposed to be finished over last winter's break! We're back in the kitchen now, and Raphael is celebrating by making enchiladas. Tomorrow is opening day at Dodger Stadium...the first fun we'll have all week!
