This was an exhausting day. 

 

I played in Mr. Brad's flowerbed with Luke all morning.  GGM watched me most of the time, with Barbara taking a turn.  After lunch, we all went to my new home to work.  Grandma, GGM and GGF Bates, Barbara, and I removed all the carpet and all the carpet pad.  I helped roll up every piece of carpet and pad.  GGF carried most of it to the garage.  Barbara forgot to take any pictures of this hard work.   Mommy was at work and we were finished before she got off work.  

We came home exhausted, hot, and dirty so we turned on the hose so I could cool off. 

 My first water play of the year.

 I was laughing hard because I could not get up the slipper slide.
Mommy and I did have time to play with Luke until it got dark.

We have decided to have our concrete floors painted.  Kristan's parents, and several of Grandma's friends have had this done and they all like it.  It costs more than laminate wood, but less than carpet or real hardwood floors and it is easy to take care of.  Hope we like it very much.
