Parker's New Room

We finished our first work inside the house last weekend. It didn't require much - scraping and re-texturing the ceiling, fresh paint, and a new ceiling fan, but it feels good to make some progress on the inside of the house. One room down, lots to go.

It still needs some finishing touches. We decided to give it more of a grown-up look so Dad hopefully doesn't have to repaint in a couple years, but that means his dinosaur stuff doesn't match quite as well. We primed the navy blue wall with a special additive (basically metal shavings) that allows magnets to stick to the wall. Yep, the entire blue wall is magnetic.

Halloween

Time to share some pictures from Halloween. I say some, but I'll warn you there are a lot of pictures in the slideshows below. We didn't do anything too exciting for Halloween, but it was nice to have a relaxed evening and Parker had a lot of fun. He definitely knows what candy is now, and he knows he loves it! We went over to Grandma Hunt's in the afternoon for a short visit, and then Renee brought Owen over for a visit so the two boys could monkey around for awhile. We hit up a few houses in the neighborhood for trick-or-treating before heading home to hand out candy. Parker was tired pretty early that night from all the excitement, and probably coming down from a sugar high.
