Painting at COTN

Me and a few friends took a visit to the new Orlando location for Children of the Nations (COTN) and painted their conference room. It was fun. Here are some pictures.





Photobucket
Julie T. attacks the wall aggressively with a roller. I'm not even sure if she had paint on it just yet!





Photobucket
Christian takes the low ground while I head up.





Photobucket
Ray worked hard at providing the entertainment by doing an interpretive dance.





Photobucket
I yelled down below to see how things were going.....it looks like Ray and Diana could hear me just fine.





Photobucket
I was begging for more paint and Ray took a picture.





Photobucket
Isn't this hilarious? It's hilarious.





Photobucket
Christian was doing just fine painting on the other side of the room.....





Photobucket
.....until I came by and took more paint.





Photobucket
I only took half a gallon.





Photobucket
Now I'm happy.





Photobucket
Someone was in the path of Julie T. while she was aggressively attacking the wall for a second round.





Photobucket
Katy joins Julie T. in the attack!





Photobucket
Diana takes over Rays job on the entertainment and starts to Salsa dance.





Photobucket
Laura from COTN gives up a thumbs up as we continue to paint.





Photobucket
Ray and I probably get too excited about paint.





Photobucket
Katy takes her 15.





Photobucket
We were hoping the color of the wall would look like my shoe laces.....





Photobucket
.....but not so much.





Photobucket
Yummers.





Photobucket
Christian took over on taking the high ground while I continued to lick paint.





Photobucket
Ray takes over as well...this can't be good.





Photobucket
ROUND 3!!!!!





Photobucket
Ray and Christian go at it.





Photobucket
Ray can't help but wonder what a world outside of the conference room is like.





Photobucket
No piece of glass can separate me and Ray.





Photobucket
Laura and Ray think it's about time to clean up now.....





Photobucket
.....BECAUSE THE PAINTING IS FINISHED!!!!!





Photobucket
We had a little bit of paint left over.





Photobucket
I was excited.





Photobucket
It was nice to visit Diana and Julie C. at the observation area.





Photobucket
Laura and Christian pick up my mess.





Photobucket
Diana was frightened of the vacuum.





Photobucket
So long paint chips!





Photobucket
Me and the wad of blue painters tape go way back.





Photobucket
Christian and Ray brought in the meeting table and called it a day.





Photobucket
Small group shot.





Photobucket
Large group shot.





Photobucket
Ray and I test out the conference room table properly before leaving.





Photobucket
I may look calm from time to time.....





Photobucket
.....but I'll attack you like Julie T. does to an unpainted wall!





Photobucket
Brian shot.





Photobucket
Ray shot.





Photobucket
Laura shot.





Photobucket
Julie C. shot.





Photobucket
Diana shot.





Photobucket
Julie T. shot.





Photobucket
Sad Christian shot.





Photobucket
Happy Christian shot.





Photobucket
Katy shot.





Photobucket
Christian and Ray take one last whiff of the paint fumes.





Photobucket
I suggested we should head out!





Photobucket
So we all headed out in the most dramatic way possible.





Photobucket
But before we left the parking lot Ray was curious to know if this was THE "Gary." We never did find out...so we will never know.
