Weekend Work

I pretty much worked at the house all weekend. My dad and brother came up early Saturday morning to start the master bath. I now have a hole to put the tub into. Spencer filled the drain in with concrete and prepped the shower for tile.

I cleaned up and burned two piles of tras
After that dad got me started on staining the doors and trim pieces. All the molding and trim will be stained dark brown.


I got all the three pocket doors stained and the guest bedroom bifold closet doors. I still have to stain the door frames and doors for the three bedroom doors and tons of trim and molding. I can go over this week after work and get the rest done. I actually like staining you don't have to be neat like painting.

I did take a break from working Saturday night to watch the game with Kev at a friend's house. 

We both went to the house today. I finished staining the doors and trim pieces in the pictures above and he stacked firewood. Yes, I know I say we do that ALL the time, but there is SOOOOO much of it. I need to take a new picture. We now have three rows and a small pile that still needs to be stacked.

Ballyseede Castle

   Tralle was a good stopping point from Dingle to Doolin. When looking for places to stay I came across the Ballyseede Castle Hotel. It was a little pricey, but since we had such great deals on all of the other B&Bs, I splurged. It's one of the best known Castle Hotels in Ireland, has a history dating back to the 1590’s and sits on 30 acres of native woodlands. The castle has 23 en-suite bedrooms and 3 beautiful private rooms complimented by enchanting formal gardens. To read about the history of the castle click here. We stayed in the Coghill room.   We had a nice view of the gardens. Here are other pictures from inside the castle. We had to have our picture made with the knights.   We Googled and found a restaurant in town that was supposed to be delicious. It was nestled on the shore overlooking the bay. We arrived about 5:30 and watched the sunset. The food was fabulous, however the service was not. ...

Pool Time!

We spent the weekend at our friends' pool. We took the dogs with us Sunday so they could have a play date. M and B have to pit bulls that are so sweet. Nahla, the youngest one, loves to play! They were also puppy sitting the cutest beagle ever!  They absolutely love going places! They were waiting in the car while I was loading our things.  I've never been able to get Hatfield in the pool, but Lilly loves it. She started off just sitting on the steps and one day she just jumped in. So, now she jumps in every now and then to cool off. Kev mixed up refreshing peach mojitos (I guess I've had major peach craving lately) this weekend. I'd share the recipe but that's his job. I never really know what all goes into what I'm drinking. I just know it's delicious! 

Football Merchandise

It's football season and Walmart has all their Razorback merchandise out. I was browsing the aisle the other day and saw these. I immediately thought whiskey! A great way to sneak liquor into the stadium. Of course the back says intended for water only. Yeah right! No one looks at this and says water.
