Count Down to China

We're making progress on the boys' room. Whitney has painted the walls. We've de-cluttered, put away, thrown away, and purged. Stan worked diligently on putting together the boys' new bed. The girls' were most intrigued and spent much time in the boys' room with their daddy. It was too sweet.

They even found a "strobe" light of sorts under the old bunk bed where Caleb and Brandon used to sleep. That brought much distraction, as they jammed out to the Christian rock band Red, and danced in the dark with only the strobe light. I tried to take photos, but they wouldn't work in the dark room, even when the light was "strobing."

Enjoy!

Note: By the time you watch this, there will likely be a different word in the song:
