"new" dresser





we've been trying our hand at painting furniture lately.  we bought this maple dresser at goodwill a few years ago and finally decided to paint it.  steve had already taken the drawers out and removed the wooden handles before i thought to take a picture.  you get the idea.  of course, a chocolate shake from chik-fil-a was just what we needed to get the job done!

update

we had a great meeting yesterday in mountain home, nc.  the ast. pastor that we had lunch w/ is nanc certified so you can imagine all of the fun i had talking with him about counseling, etc.  we are just about ready to send in our visa applications, maggie now regularly talks to her imaginary friend "linguini" (from ratatouille) and gwyneth has 6 teeth, can roll over and sit up by herself.  we are trying to pack what we can and getting very excited about our move to wales.  i am adjusting to using iphotos for blogging and am hoping to get back in to blogging this week.  thanks for tuning in.
