Where to start? We have become very involved in our church. We enjoy going and we have come to love the members. Unfortunately, our church did not have a very nice nursery and it lacked a Sunday School program. We find it very important that William and Harrison receive the benefits of a church family and learn from Sunday School. We also think it is a very important part of the church to be able to grow as a congregation. Our church is over 50 years old and it has been very neglected over the years.
We decided to commit ourselves to remodeling and redecorating a nursery/Sunday School room. The room was used as daycare but really ended up being a storage room for the church. And wouldn't you know it, the storage closet was actually a bathroom! We spent about a month working on this project. Every free moment was spent there. The boys even stayed up there till mid-night several nights while Scott and I worked. I am happy to say it is finished and Sunday School is starting! Here are some before and after pictures.

There's also a cute polka dot bulletin board on the right wall that isn't in the picture.

We will wait a little bit but here is the next project: The backyard of the nursery.

*I apologize for not acknowledging those who helped with the nursery in this post. That was never my intention. Thank you to Steve (Scott's Dad) for all his work cleaning, painting and with the base boards. He spent a LOT of time during his trip out here at the church. Thank you to Nita (Scott's mom), Stephanie and Kelly (Scott's sisters) for helping prep/clean the nursery to get started (and keeping the boys entertained). And Nita for the beautiful window treatments! Thank you to Shelby for all your hard work with shopping, decorating, assembling, etc. And a big thanks to recruiting your brother to help with
assembling furniture. I'm so excited for Sunday School to start. And last but not least, thank you to Mario, our plumber, for doing all his work and for FREE! Talk about community service! I am sorry I didn't mention you sooner. I am very thankful for
every one's work on the project!*
