Quick Trip

The kids have been sick, but fevers broke overnight, and today everyone was in good spirits.  Because we're good citizens, we follow the "24-hour fever free" rule, so church this morning was out.  We decided on a "quick" trip to a park along the Bay on the Eastern Shore side.  

Unfortunately, I didn't do much research and the park was absolutely devoid of signage.....so we took a lovely 1 mile hike in the wrong direction before turning around and hiking another mile back. 





 But we finally did find the beach!  
And it was lovely.






Happy Sunday!

Before & After

OK, so this post is mainly for our benefit and encouragement, but some of you might find it interesting too.  I've tried to put together some before and after photos of the house through all its many stages.  
These are all from the 1st floor.

I can't say it's been fun, but at least the two of us are still in love!
