After a long couple days being couped up, Riley finally gets to head to the beach to blow off some steam...
Introducing the Finally Finished! Holiday Challenge at Things Bright.
Pull out your old projects and post them in the Finally Finished! group. :)
As I get older, I do realize I miss Hawaii more - there's something very unique about this place that I can't find anywhere else. And yes - food is definitely part of that equation. :)
when i got up this morning, the sun was out. the first time properly, in almost three weeks. i'm feeling so much better for it.
The nursery is now complete. I'm really happy with the way it has turned out. The colours are bright but soothing, the crib and change table fit perfectly. Also put together the stroller and car seat tonight.
How can you not love this baby? She was finally able to find a spot in the living room that made her feel at home.
...which is good since I move in in two days! After two very frustrating weeks of bad communication, broken promises and waiting the kitchen guys finally got around to the last finishing touches. Or at least I hope so....
After travelling by taxi, plane, coach, bus and finally Shanks's pony we arrived at Avebury Stone Circle :-)
When the rain stopped Nathen, Popple, and I went to the tourist beach just off of 20th and Ocean blvd. Nathen immediatley took off his shoes and his jacket and started running for the water.. He frolicked and played to his hearts content. The tide of the water was intruiging to him. He would stand at the end and wait for the waves to crash into his feet. He took some time to find sea shells, and insited on throwing the broken ones back into the ocean (he said that is where they belonged so they could find thier other parts).
I did not notice the rainbow untill I started going through all of the photo's of that day... Just another sign that God granted Nathen's wish...
The big neighborhood debut. Please try to ignore the excited throngs.
One neighbor did drive by while I was taking photos. Probably she just shook her head in disgust at the thought of yet another old Volvo on the street.
If you look closely you can see that there is a spot of body putty above the mounting holes for the 242DL badge. There was a bit of body work that I missed the first time around. Hoping that when it goes back in to shoot the insides of the fenders they'll be able to just shoot and clear coat this one area again. We'll see.
You'll also note that the driver's door isn't latching properly. More on that later....I suspect at this point that the NOS weather stripping that I procured is not the right application for this year. In the process of reviving the original stuff and hoping that when I swap it back in things will be OK.
