Memorial weekend we could be found enjoying the raining Washington coast. In true Washington spirit the beaches were packed despite the weather (you can't wait for a sunny day in this state or you'd never go outside). We actually had a purpose to our visit, to help AH's brother and SIL finish putting things together in their new beach/rental house. It's a cozy home that packs more space than what can be seen from the front yard - 3 stories, 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths.
The first order of business was putting blinds up on all the windows - even those hard to reach areas.
BTW this was also the only place in the house to get internet reception. Apparently the internet service was installed before we arrived, but we found out afterward that you had to call in to "activate" the account. . . only they don't work weekends. Doh!
Taking a quick break - oh, who's that cutie? Mr. T loved all the time with his cousins.
And attention from all the adults too.
Pool time was a must. . . at least 2 - 3 times each day.
Happy Kids = Happy Parents
Mr. R loved showing me all his many ways of entering the pool.
Beeb and Ms. C also joined in on the demos.
My beautiful Mr. B. He was MIA for the most part playing Xbox, Kinect, iPad and any other device he could get his hands on with his cousin Mr. G.
Monopoly . . . I hate it almost as much as I hate playing Clue.
The cute accent wall in the eating area.
The white kitchen. I *heart* white cabinetry.
The main floor bathroom.
The cute bunk room!
The light fixture intended for the bunk room was similar to this fixture, only antique (from Chris' childhood bedroom) and cuter. Unfortunately it was broken during installation (so sad) and this is the replacement the builders found. It's cute, but not at unique as the original.
This is the bedroom AH and I stayed in over the weekend. I love the color scheme!
The living room is just darling. Nat worked really had to bring it all together and I love how light and bright it is with fun beach colors.
I love all the details.
Mr. R lounging while we packed up to head out at the end of our stay. We were all sad to go.
Ms. B claiming her spot!
On a trail next to the house people have built all these cute troll/fairy houses. Beeb, Ms. C and Chris added to the collection with this fabulous mini space of their own.
Apparently Smurf's are popular with the Trolls.
So long to the as-yet-to-be-named beach house. We had fun within your walls. Looking forward to seeing what color you are painted this summer.
