Rebeccas 2nd Birthday!
So all our hard work got unveiled yesterday for Rebeccas second birthday, and what a rush to finish it was.
We had it all planned out, Rebeccas birthday was last Monday and we decided to have her party yesterday this gave us time to finish off the flooring, the 2 tonnes of soil moving, the carpeting, painting, etc etc. We also had a bright idea to take our holidays the week of her birthday and a week after.
With Rebecca in creche it meant we could easily get the 63 square meters of flooring done in time for the party and go for a trip to Wexford the week after, yep thats right since the builders left myself and Paula have been doing the rest.
So last Saturday the 19th we got all the wood to the house and were about to sit down and take a breather when the phone started ringing. It was my work colleague ringing to tell me he had broken his foot and would not be able to work, could I cover him for a week. Of course I obliged, and both he and work owe me now big time, but what this meant was that the flooring had to be done when I got home, so last week both myself and Paula stayed up till 2.30 every night getting the work done, so as you can imagine I am like a zombie.
But we got there! and the party began in earnest and everyone was amazed at how well we had done. Tomorrow we head for Wexford and I will return on Wednesday with shit loads of pictures since the camera has been away for 2 months now, I need to relearn a thing or 2.
