Our backyard has officially become a jungle. Oh sure, the front yard looks nice, but it's long past time that we mow the backyard. Summer has smacked us in head. (is it even officially summer yet?) We have been spending way to much time inside working on various web projects and have yet to begin our regular outdoor activities resulting in long grass, too many weeds and generally too many yard projects to wrap our minds around.
On the other had, we DID get our nursery painted last night. Joy's family spent the weekend with us and graciously helped us clean out our downstairs spare bedroom from the massive Department 56 Christmas Village that still hadn't been completely put away. Then we moved the upstairs spare room furniture to the downstairs room where it took on a much cozier efftect after a quick decoration session. Ok, now the upstairs room can be converted into a nursery.
It was merely minutes after the family left for home that Tom grabbed a paintbrush and roller and began splashing paint on the walls of the now empty room. By 11:30 pm last night the nursery paint project was completed. In the days to come we will place the wallpaper strip around the center of the room and it will be complete!....Now we just need to save for the baby furniture. So, back to the web projects we go. So much for getting the backyard mowed.
This coming weekend we will photograph our first professional wedding. We are very nervous about getting it right. It's time to put all the training and tid bits of information together and make it all work. Tom recently purchased a set of professional lights complete with a power pack, umbrellas etc. After a few more ebay purchases, (Compact Flash cards, gizmos, meters etc.) we'll see if we can bring everything together and make the flashes flash! Wish us luck. It seems easier to just be the bride and groom.
