After I flew home for my delightful visit to Pennsylvanialand, my dad and I drove back down to the South C. That was fun. :D Actually, the drive was long (13+ hours) yet a pretty good time! Did you know the driver is allowed to sing as long as it's not Van Halen? :D The drive was also a good time for us to catch up about things. For instance, I had no idea my dad was once in an elevator with JACKIE CHAN.
Anyway, my dad was here for about a week (my mom flew down Thursday and spent the weekend with us) and I kept the poor guy very, very busy. I did not take pictures of everything because no one wants to see the two toilets he fixed... however, he also put in a peephole in the front door and pegboard/baskets/hooks in the garage:
My pop also helped me install a new-to-me washer and dryer - my friend Eileen moved and I got some of her appliances, including these darlings and a giant French door refrigerator:
We also put on a new seal on the patio door... Yay! However, I think my favorite projects were when we replaced the clunky, giant old white ceiling-fans-with-boob-lights in the living room and master bedroom with sleek modern nickel fans. They are identical, except we chose to put the light wood out in the bedroom and the dark wood out downstairs. I'll share a picture of the downstairs fan later - I'm in the process of sewing new curtains and will share all at once.
Do you notice anything else going on in the bedroom? The walls are painted!!! When my bestie was here two weeks ago, she kindly agreed to help paint the room! I chose Bay Waves by Valspar. The room gets the afternoon sun so the color is juuuuuuust light enough and juuuuuuust dark enough. Gorg. <3
Speaking of my bestie, today is Alison's Birthday! Happy Birthday, Ali!
Who are your celebrity run-ins?
