Missing pictures

So here is a picture of Brie and SLA cleaning my disgusting dirty kitchen cabinets for my Christmas present. Or anyway, it is where the picture would be if we had thought about taking one. We should have taken the before and after shots, but I'm not sure how we would have done that. They did remove every cabinet door, pull everything out of all the cabinets and drawers, scrub and throw away stuff, then line the cabinets and drawers, repaint and touch up what they could and put it all back together. It was quite a process, and took a lot longer than the day that they had planned. Anyway, as I don't have a picture. all I can do is let everyone know how great of a gift that was. Something that no one in their right mind will ever volunteer to do again. But then, I'm not sure anyone in our family is truly in their right mind...

What a wonderful Christmas present - great job girls. I remember one year JW's mom found this beautiful navy blue shower curtain she really liked. So all of us kids got together bought all of this navy blue stuff for her bathroom and while she was out for the day, we painted and redid it as a gift for her birthday. It was so much fun and she absolutely loved it. Cleaning and painting is definitely more fun when there are more people involved. Alexshuman needs to come back or i'm thinking i'm never going to get the girl's room done upstairs - I'm stalled.

I get so upset when I forget to take a picture of things I would like to remember. Phil laughs at me because I now carry my camera with me all of the time. I just have to remember to pull it out and take the picture. Which doesn't always happen. That was a great Christmas present for you.
