We have been super busy with the week leading up to school. Patrick turned 15 aug 30. (picture 1)I had to drive to chesapeake 2 times that week. On tuesday for orthodontist appointments and on thursday because Marissa was still in a lot of pain from surgery. Her oral surgeon said she was healing nicely. Wednesday was the high school open house and thursday afternoon was the elementary. The first week of school is going great for the most part. Patrick has been complaining that his right leg was hurting. It looked like he had poor circulation but it ended up being an infection. Mike took him to the ER tuesday. Today is his second day out of school. He is on antibiotics and warm compresses and 
elevating his leg. I hope he can go back to school tomorrow. We started working on the entrance way on saturday.(pictures 2,3,4 &5)Mike took out the door framing for the 2 apartments downstairs. That opens up the entrance way and makes it look bigger. We scrapped the peeling painted over wall paper and found writing on the plaster. It's a bunch of adding and a paragraph that is smeared. I have been trying to remove all the paint from the door frames and trim so it will look nice when it's painted. I also have been working on the french doors that lead into the kitchen. I have 1 of 2 done.
We have also been working outside. Mike is working on the trim around the top of the house and replacing rotted wood. So yesterday i stained/painted the side porch (picture 6) It looked more red going on but now it's brown. It's very nice.
