Thank you Grandma Nancy!





Several weeks ago Ben's mom sent us a box full of birdhouse gourds! She dried them, hollowed them out and drilled the holes for us and everything. They've been sitting in the kitchen waiting for us to have the right time to make a big mess and decorate them! (and for it to be warm/decent enough outside for me to be able to take them out and spray them with a clear coat so the paint won't wash off after we hang them outside.)
Yesterday was perfect. We sat right down in the driveway and painted them, they dried super fast. We strung them up between some saw horses and I sprayed them before supper and were dry before bedtime!
If our thunderstorms clear up this afternoon we can go find some trees to hang them in!
