We started the day by emptying the guest room (AKA Grammy's room) in preperation for painting.
Imagine our surprise when Mom and Dad stopped by on their way out of town on the bike! All of the bedroom contents were filling our living room. What a mess! Good thing they're family.
We went to the store to get paint and groceries, and we saw a Kellogg's truck and trailer out in front of WalMart. The girls and I had to check it out.
In the trailer was a boat ride simulator. They had so much fun, trying to get that boat to go where they wanted it. There was a course to follow, going under Kellogg's signs and such, but they wound up going in circles, instead.
It tossed them around and followed the motion of waves. It was way cool, and they both had a turn at driving.
Then we came home and started painting. It's a pale green with dark green trim. We even found an inexpensive bed-in-a-bag that matches nicely. It's amazing how much a coat of cheap paint can change a room.
Even if you DO have to make a huge mess to get there.
Finally, to give him his fair due, who could stay mad at this face?
Even if he DOES shed all over the place and chase cats when we let him outside.
I can't wait to see what the rest of my weekend brings. Kevin's Mom (Grammy) and sister (Susan) and nephew (Steven) are on the way up as we speak.

Wow you all have been busy. Isn't it amazing how painting a room can mess up everything as all the furniture has to go somewhere else. But once the painting is done and all is in it's place...it's all worth it. Hope you all are having a good holiday weekend and enjoying your company.
