This weekend we worked on my dad's birthday present (it was on the 19th but he and my mom were in Key West all week).
Since my parents did all those crazy renovations on their house (I think it has been about 4 years now) my Dad has talked about wanting a post with signs and milage pointing to all his favorite places. Well, finally we made one!
Colors mixed, base down.
Free-hand painted by the talented rices. I have to say I was quite impressed with our skills.
My handy-man husband.
Our friend Matt came over to help us!
Rick teaching Matt how to use power tools!
The finished product that we will be putting in the yard soon!
As for this week... Although Rick is going to be gone once again... I do have an exciting week!
Tuesday: tickets to see Cirque Dreams Jungle Fantasy (Thanks StyleWeekly - I won them!) with Careyann (Rick's youngest sister)
Wednesday: donating my hair to Locks of Love for the 2nd time! Goodbye long hair!!
Thursday: My birthday!! Dinner with my folks and I get my top secret birthday surprise!!
Friday: Have the day off from school... don't know what I will do but I know it will be fun!
So sad that Rick won't be around for my exciting birthday week. But I am sure I will still have a great time.
His birthday is coming up on May 11th.. he will be out of town for that too! :(
As for the month of May, we have lots to look forward to!
May 9: The Rice Birthday Bash (cookout for our birthdays)
May 11: Rick's birthday; my brother comes to town for a weekish
May 16: Crawfish Boil and my grandparents will be in town from Maryland
May 30: Our friend from pdx will be in town for about 2 weeks
I hope this finds everybody happy healthy and staying cool in this hot weather!
Love,
your about-to-turn-a-year-older richmond rices.
