Who wants to stain?

We began the long a tedious process of staining our shed. Little did we know that each crack between each individual shake would need to be painted with a thin artists paintbrush. :(

You'll notice Boulder in the foreground, pretending like he helped. Ok, ok...he did help a little bit as evidenced below. Yes, that is stain on his face. But don't worry mom and dad...it is latex based and wiped right off...kind of. But yeah, the dogs pretty much slept until the work was done and then rubbed on the wet paint. Madison got jealous and had to get a little bit too...but was a bit more ginger with how it was applied to her coat and wasn't worth a photo.
We are thinking about leaving the shed painted as shown in the photo above and calling it the Modified Ying-Yang Shed....do you see it? Ok, maybe not.
