It was a busy weekend. Most of the kids got together and worked at Dad's house, cleaning inside and outside, painting, all in preparation to sell Dad's house. Our Son and Grand-daughter also helped us out, in fact our Son pressure washed the entire outside of the house, and it was hot, but he was a trooper and did a fabulous job. A lot of work to be done, but we had a great time working together, laughing and having a good time. The house is looking good. Still some painting to do, and later this week or early next week we are getting new carpet installed, and then it should be ready to go on the market. So this Labor Day Holiday was a true "Labor Weekend." Hope you all had a great weekend too, and hoping you have a wonderful Labor Day hgoliday tomorrow. We are going out to grab a bite to eat, and then I'll be back to check out your photos.
Nice collage.... its great when family get together for whatever reason, its always fun one way or another. Your Dad must be very proud of you all. I hope the house sells for him. Happy Labor Day....
Some lucky couple..maybe newlyweds, will have a beautiful home. so great to know that the family again got tegether and tackled this job. your Dad would 've been so proud of all of you. beautiful collage.
Enjoyed looking at each picture. Nice to have the family come together and do this. The house will sell, but you'll have the memories. Great collage and great overall picture, Rick.
Oh, how wonderful that everyone came together to work on this project! The work is so much easier when there are plenty of good hands. Good luck with the sale!
Great family project this labor day weekend. I know this will increase the value of the home. Good luck on the market. Love this college and it looks like a great home.
Great collage. A big job like that is a lot easier with lots of help. I remember cleaning out my Grandfather's house after he passed away and the whole family was there to help. It was actual fun to remember all of the great times we had together there.
I think it's wonderful that everyone worked together....I can tell you have a terrific family and that's because you are a good role model to your children. :) Happy Labor Day to you too...you've worked hard now rest!! :)
It's such a blessing you can do this as a family. Sometimes closing things down and selling a home is such an emotional strain. That you're together and can share the load makes for a lighter spirit. Nice collage.
what a great collage -- I can feel the love and care going into freshening up your Dad's house! Good luck with the sale! Glad you have so many helping hands!
That's an impressive amount of work! How wonderful for you that the whole family pitched in...a nice testamony to you and everyone's love and appreciation for your dad. ...but when did you find time, after all that, to make a collage, too?!!
I really love your family shots and stories, Rick. They remind me of my childhood, when life was all about grandparents, cousins, aunts and uncles. Some of us are still really close, and one branch is arriving this week for their grandfather's memorial service. Thank you for reminding me how this can be...
