My mom and dad came to visit...hooray!!!
We love having family come and stay with us. It is such fun for all of us to spend time with them. This visit had a purpose though...
My dad was coming to WORK!
We have had lots of projects around our home that needed to be finished up or started:). Chris works hard for our family and then spends a lot of time with the kids and there was never enough time to get everything done. There were also a few things that he wanted my dad to show him how to do.
My dad helped Chris finish laying brick outside and landscaping...this was a HUGE job!
He expanded our garden...another huge job.
He fixed our pipe under our kitchen sink and then installed a new faucet...twice:).
He put in pipes and installed a double sink in our garage (life changing!).
He filled in a huge hole in our door.
He filled in and repainted big holes and marks on our walls.
He tightened some loose things around the house.
That is all I can think of right now, but as you can see it was pretty amazing!
Chris and I are both really grateful!
Chris can look up almost anything, read about it, and figure out how to do it, but it was really nice for him to have someone there to show him hands on how to do something and give him tips.
Thanks Dad!!!!
While my dad was working I got to spend some time with my mom and the kids. Henry was mostly in school so it was just the girls a lot of the time. It was such a nice couple of weeks and so fun! We hardly took any pictures, but we had a great time! My dad did not work the whole time and we did go do some things as a family like going to Tanner's Orchard. We even let Henry out of school for two days so he could come with us and work with Poppy...which he loved!
Henry and Eliza LOVE cuddling with Gramme!
This usually involves a book or two or three...:)
Here are some of my favorite pictures of Gramme and the kids.
