Project: Dresser

My Mama recently cleaned out my closet from my old room. It was a big walk in closet and in the back of it was a white dresser. When she told me she cleaned the closet out I told her I wanted the dresser for Madelyn’s room. She got it out and realized that it could use a fresh coat of paint and there were a few spots of glue and paint that would need to be scrapped off.

Normally when I get something and I’m suppose to refinish it or I have a little project, I will drag my feet. But since little Miss is having a birthday party and I want her room to look nice, I had no choice but to start on it.

 

Saturday afternoon Daddy brought it over and I began working on it. In no time I had it washed down, scrapped a few things off of it and painted it white. Yesterday morning I put it all back together and there you go….a new dresser. I already had the white paint from the dining room so all I did was spend time on it. Can’t beat that!!!

The Newest Addition to our lives

Aidan is Davy’s little boy who was born 10-20-10 (how easy is his birthday to remember?). We went up to Illinois to meet him last month. Here are some pictures of our little visit.

While we were up there we went to an Apple Orchard and they had the neatest wooden playground. I want to go back up there and take Michael so he can play on the playground.

Davy got a picture in the Fire Truck since he use to be a firefighter.

The real reason the Gator’s won the FL/GA game is because Aidan was sporting his Gator cap. Ha

We enjoyed being up there and meeting Aidan and can’t wait for him and his Mama to come down in December.

Anniversary Trip

Matthew and I celebrated our 6 year wedding anniversary Oct. 2nd. What better way to celebrate then to go on a trip with William and Stephanie to the Alabama/Florida game. We had a great time being with Stephanie and William was fun once he got over his illness that I gave him. 8-( 

I won’t go into detail about the game and Stephanie already shared our trip on her blog: http://theroadlesstraveled-thewhitehursts.blogspot.com/2010/10/road-trip-with-great-friends-good-times.html

Here are some pics.
