The back of our part of the duplex. Yeah, Ugly.
Painting the house was a huge part of September. Pressure washing, letting it dry, picking out colors, masking/taping, spraying, hand painting the trim. It took 4 full saturdays, an afternoon, and help from the grandparents! I didn't know what I was getting myself into. But as you can see, the back of the house needed it, and the front is just boring! We got premium paint that will last forever, so I never have to do that again!
In September Kyle and I both got Oregon drivers licenses. Reading the drivers manual was pretty boring, but I learned a lot and passed my test.
Kyle and I also got callings: I am the Relief Society chorister and on the Relief Society Activities Committee, and Kyle is the Advancement Specialist for Cub Scouts (he buys their patches each month).
The best part of the month was celebrating my birthday and our Anniversary by going kayaking and going out to dinner at the Cheesecake Factory. Kayaking was peaceful, fun, and interesting. It was so rejuvenating. Hooray for 5 years together! We are happy to meet that milestone, grateful for where our lives have taken us thus far, and excited to live the rest of forever together.
New and improved! Compare (to above pics), love, enjoy. All that work was worth it.
