Getting it done…

The drive way has been sealed – looks awesome – it needed it five years ago, so it is a huge improvement.

Hubby installed new lights at the end of the driveway and on the garage. I found a set that was bought a few (8?) years ago for the back of the house and they happen to match the design of the new ones so they will be going on the house today. All nice black coach lights. Ugly fake-brass crap stuff is gone.

The new drive way lights are the coach style as well. Replaced the ugly globes, which everyone else on the street still has, so now I am in globe watch. I think hubby and I might start a pool to see who switched their lights out next.

And last but not least – the deck got stained last night as well – 2 hours of three of us working. Ok. 2 and ½ or 2 and ¼ because The Girl was helping us. She finally got to use a roller and decided that it wasn’t nearly as much fun as she thought it was. After 10 minutes she needed to cool off in the pool.

We had the last laugh because the deck leads up to the pool gates. Once we got it stained we told her she was trapped for the night. Ha ha!

I guess she forgot about the small gate that leads to the side of the house.

We managed to torture her for 30 min.
