Mother's Day

Today we celebrated Mother's Day. We had excellent weather, so I was able to finish the project I started yesterday -- painting our front porch railings. I cleaned the railings yesterday. It had been 5 years since anything had been done to them, and they were in dire need of some attention.

So after church today, we ate, I took a nap, and then painted the railings. They really look nice now. It's one of those things where you just dread doing it, hate it the whole time you are doing it, but once it is done, you are so glad that you did it.

I've still got to get the front porch swing painted, and in a few weeks, we'll be setting up our pool for the summer. It's finally starting to feel like summer, and I for one, am enjoying it!
