Chris, Melanie, and Julia Come to Visit

This weekend we were privilaged to have Chris, Melanie, and Julia over to visit. We grabbed some dinner at Applebee's then went to the BYU vs. Utah gymnastics meet. It was a lot of fun watching Julia cringe every time the band played the Utah fight song.

The next morning it was a little cool out but Chris challenged me to a tennis match so we went to a nearby park and had at it. I'm not sure what the final score was but I may not have won. Chris has got skills.

Here's the story of how a small leak turns into a big project. Pictured below is an innocent looking pipe...

Followed by a not so innocent gaping hole in the wall...
One day it decided it was going to start leaking all over our living room ceiling. So in an effort to keep mold from growing inside our walls, I cut a nice big hole in the ceiling.

Getting that sheetrock piece to fit in that 2' x 2' hole was a nightmare!

This hole is finished, all it needs is some sanding and a coat of paint.

Foutunately we have some friends who taught me how to repair drywall. So here I am, reparing drywall.

Don't I make it look easy? The drywall mud has to set for a little while then I can finish up the job and Andrea can have her house back in order. Ahh home ownership...living the dream baby.
