Daddy's Surprise and Scavenger Hunt!

So we finished the bedroom by the time Daddy's made it home on Saturday night. It was about 10:30 when he walked in the door. Riley meet him at the door and was ready for the scavenger hunt, lil Hayden passed out in the floor waiting on Daddy to get home. So we tried to wake him to see if he wanted to play along and he didn't so, so it was just me, Dad and Riley, we reenacted it the next day with Hayden!

I do have to say it was a long week, I tried to take Wednesday off but had to go in that night and do a color on one of my special clients! The boys helped me paint, which made the process even longer, but they did a really good job. The project started on Sunday when I sorted thru clothes and took down all the decor that was hung. Then Monday night when I got off work I filled the holes and moved everything to the middle of the floor. So we got the first coat of paint on Wednesday, done the second coat on Thursday and moved all the furniture back and hung the decor on Friday!







So the whole time I was doing the trim work, the boys were painting the wall that I assigned them to paint. They done this all by themselves, even the wall on the left!


Hayden was tired from all painting so he decided to take a nap, see how much paint is on him..LOL!
Since we moved all the furniture to the middle of the bedroom floor, Riley wanted his bed to be moved to the living room, so I let him. Well Wednesday night I came thru the living room and the boys made a slide. They hung the mattress off the couch so they could slide off the couch onto the floor! What imaginations! Well, Riley must have been so worn out that this is how I found him when I came out of laundry room!



The boys made and framed their handprints!


So Saturday, we prepared for the scavenger hunt. We made Dad play the scavenger hunt to find his hidden treasure, we had eye patches, ear rings, treasure maps, compasses, clue cards and tokens. So here are all his clues:










So when Dad got home, we had to get prepared to hunt his treasure.



Finally, the last clue, sent him to the fireplace where he found a photo album of all the pics that we took during our project!

Finally the finished project!
