Life has been busy the last couple of weeks, but we have been making progress on the house. Currently, most of the drywall is up. We started mudding this week (basically adding a putty-like adhesive to all of the seams and screw holes in the walls). We have made great progress on the master, office and living room. Our goal is paint the master next week (fingers crossed!). Eric keeps telling me that "mud will fix it" and now I am starting to believe it!
Here is Eric getting ready to mud:

Here is what the walls look like right now. They are starting to look like walls again!

We were lucky to have some helping hands this weekend-- Thanh helped out on Saturday, and Heather (pictured below) came by on Sunday (thanks, friends!)

We got to 'play' a bit too this weekend!
Friday night we went to Carkeek beach and saw a beautiful sunset -- everytime I go to this park I am in awe that this beautiful place is less than a mile from our house!


Sunday we had family over for a sunny bbq and got to see Kelly and Chris (in town from Koln, Germany).
Here is Eric with Jamie & Bob's adorable dog:

I (Christina) even got out for a bike ride around Lake Washington today. What a beautiful September we are having!!!
