\nPre-painting<\/p>\n

Well it’s been a fun few days around here.
\nTuesday afternoon I got a new job offer – more on that later.
\nTuesday night we had a game night for our community group at Amy<\/strong> and Gaylan’s<\/strong>. We had a great time hanging out and celebrating Gaylan’s birthday. We’re planning our Christmas party back over there in a couple weeks.
\nWednesday Laurie<\/strong> and I headed back to work and then went to Aaron<\/strong> and Keri’s<\/strong> for the Lehmann Thanksgiving festivities. Always fun to see all the Lehmann’s and enjoy their great food and fellowship.
\nWe got home Wednesday night around 8:30 and Laurie went right to work painting the dining room. I tell you what, when she gets her mind set on something there’s not much that can stop her. She had briefly started painting on Tuesday night before our community group but we really went to town Wednesday night. Unfortunately we ran out of painter’s tape so we avoided some spots near the ceiling and window trim.
\nWe ran out of paint in our first can around midnight so Laurie started cleaning up and getting prepped to make her infamous potato casserole for our Thanksgiving meal.<\/p>\n

\nIt was then that she realized she needed more sour cream and hash browns. Doh!
\nI headed out in the cold to Wal-Mart in Lancaster, who were luckily still open.
\nGrabbed the food, some more painter’s paint as well as Christmas lights.
\nWe’ve got plenty of miniature Christmas lights, but I wanted something different so I bought several strings of larger white lights for outside the house.
\nWe enjoyed sleeping in Thursday morning and Laurie got up around 10 to make some great cinnamon\/orange rolls and to finish the potato casserole.
\nWe left for her parents around noon after the casserole finished cooking and I got OrangeNoiseRadio<\/A> set up for Orange Friday.<\/p>\n
