I Have Some Good News

Last night Zach was laying on the couch at my in-law's while we were on the floor playing Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader? on the computer (we are not smarter than a 5th grader), when Zach pops up and says "I have some good news!" We looked at him and blood is coming out of his mouth and he says "I lost a toof". He lost his front tooth! Now he really is talking funny. I didn't realize how true that song 'All I Want For Christmas' is until I heard him talk. He's funny.


My good news this week is that I don't live in a pink house anymore! Yeah!! I also haven't had to change a Parker poopy diaper in 3 days now. I don't know which one I am more excited about! Anyway, we painted our house last week. Gus really did a great job. He thought it would only take a day or two, but we will have touch-ups to do. Brian and Laura came and their kids came and helped on Monday night. If it weren't for them, we probably would still be painting! Thanks guys! Here is a before and after picture:

At one time there was white, pink and brown on the house and it totally looked like neapolatin ice cream! I'm just glad that our brown didn't turn pink. Thanks to the Columbia paint man for that one! It was a busy week.

Zach is growing up way too fast!! A lost tooth already! Your house looks really, really good! I'll have to come see it in person.

Yeah for Parker. Keep up the good work!

Oh, and by the way, I never got golf lessons like some middle, spoiled child. :)

I can't wait to hear Zach talk now! I agree- your house looks SO good. It looks kind of classy now (not that it looked trashy before, I just don't know if I'd consider pink classy) =) Hopefully Parker keeps up the good work!
