Curtains, Paint and Pictures OH MY

We are having a surprise Birthday party for Brad's daddy here on FRIDAY.

So if you know him and are reading this..... Don't tell him. haha

He will be 70 years old.. Brad was so excited when he asked if I cared if we had a party here.

He was so cute telling me that 70 was a milestone. haha

OF course I didn't care... I always love any reason to have a party.

But you get to looking around your house at all the stuff that your gonna get around too and WHAM it's a lot. ha I've been meaning to make some curtains to go on the stair landing windows for ummmmmmmmmm about 2 years now. It's so high and I just never got around to climbing up there to measure them... But... my mother would be proud. I actually did climb up there and measure instead of eyeballing it like I usually would have. I didn't measure twice and cut once.... But I did measure once and cut twice. AND I must say they look pretty darn good. I'll show you the finished thing tomorrow.

Then I've had a wall that needed something on it, and had a picture that I've had half painted on for months now. It started out a floral.... then somewhere in mid stream I changed my mind. So now it's a woman dreaming of floral. haha Or as my dad called it " Some modern art that you can just see anything you want in it." ( that was his description to a friend on the phone of what I was doing ) You gotta laugh at that cause it's kinda true. ha

Now tomorrow I've got a list of a zillion, jillion little other things I've got to get done. But both girls will be here tomorrow afternoon (Brenae and Brook) so they can play with Brady and I can get so much more done. He is so helpful I must say... That sewing machine pedal was just too much fun to resist.... and the paint... well even I can't resist that. ha May we all get something finished that we've been putting off for a while, and have a fun time doing it too...
