This last weekend was mainly spent painting! As part of her birthday present, Erin was redecorating her bedroom and the great paint-job happened this past weekend. Janet did the lion's share, painstakingly stencilling multiple, brightly coloured polka dots on the upper parts of the walls. This area and the ceiling were painted white, above the pink picture rail which acted as a border for the BRIGHT green walls! Erin is very happy with her new paint scheme, and just rolled her eyes when I asked if she would provide a rack of dark glasses for people entering the room!
Due to the painting activity we went to church on Saturday evening, which was good — relatively uncrowded and a very relaxed atmosphere.
I also enjoyed relaxing in the pool — just the way to relax after a tough day's painting!
The weekend was a long-weekend, as Monday was Memorial Day, in memory of those lost in defense of their country. I came back by train on Monday afternoon, to be here for my small group meeting on Monday night. When I got home, the nearby cemetery was completely decked out with American flags (large ones along all the roadways, and smaller ones on some of the graves — I presume those of ex-servicemen and women). Unfortunately, the flags had all been a removed a couple of hours later when I went to get a few photos!
