How did we spend our Labor Day weekend? Why, laboring of course! We buzzed out to Portland (after a Thursday night layover at the Wells house), arriving Friday. After a relaxing Friday evening, we set to work on Bri and Peter's "office." The paint job was promised on her birthday last June, so it was time to get after it. By the way, Briana and Peter are doing fine. Bri is looking great as she completes her seventh month, and baby Sabina is quite lively.
First of all, here's the Bortens' house, which they've had for about six months. Nice place in a quiet southeast-Portland neighborhood. The "before" picture of the office shows crappy yellow walls, a blue rail, and white upper wall-ceiling. After plenty of prep work, we applied light sand upper, dark sand lower, with white trim. We finished late Sunday night. Monday, we had breakfast downtown, a tour of Briana's expanding spa, and the long drive back to Helena.
Hope y'all had a good holiday. For some of you, it's now "back to school." Bwa-ha-ha-ha!

What an amazing makeover!! It is gorgeous. Too bad it wasn't in a couple of weeks - I could have been there to help!! My labor day weekend was wonderful as it was spent with two grandbabies, Michael, Marc, Matt and Kelly. We had a blast!!! The baby is adorable!!
Love,
