Fun with Family

My sister Ann stayed with us before she moved/flew to North Carolina.  Here are some darling pictures of her Hazel after her bath.  Such awesome hair!

We went to Denver for several days to visit Grandma and Grandpa Hurst.  This was the pair getting ready to make the long flight to North Carolina at the Denver airport.  Go Annie!  Super traveling Mama!

When I got back from the airport this is what I found Ellie doing with Grandma Kathy...helping pick weeds!
So cute.

Oops!  Lost a shoe.  She's such a Cinder Ellie!

Scrubbing under those nails for sure!

The next day I helped Kathy take down her awesome 80's wallpaper that was totally clashing with her beautiful new Lazy Boy furniture.  It was sooo much fun!  We just peeled off the vinyl layer with our hands real quick and rented a steamer and steamed and scraped with a putty knife.  It took time, but was easy and fun!  Wallpaper... Fun, impossible... no, possible :)

Bookcase silhouette is on the left and a shelf  and mirror hung above where you see the lamp.

So funny thing, after we took off the vinyl layer the paper layer under had changed colors except for where the bookcase stood and where a couple other things hung on the walls.  I thought it was cool looking so here it is :)  Much better looking!  Good times.
