Lots of busy hands around here this week. The three girls were over yesterday and the fairy garden is in recovery mode this morning. Ditto Nana. Among other things, we made (and ate) snicker-doodles, goofed around outside and played with build-a-horse clay projects. My horse turned out a bit sad. Nova said, "more like a dog."
But Tom's hands are the busiest. He finished most of the prep work on both sides of the house and started spray painting yesterday afternoon. I love the color of that blue paint when it's fresh. Something so clean and Dutch about it. Another coat or so, then on he's to the trim.
It's another beautiful summer morning, some showers expected tonight but nothing too serious. This is the first time in a long while that all sides of the house look good at the same time.
Amanda drives to Seattle today. We're all looking forward to the old-fashioned, local West Seattle "HiYu" Parade on Saturday morning, just up the street on California Avenue. It's pretty rare that everyone is in town at the same for the parade.
