It was a busy week this week. All my kids were sick again, including myself. It's always hard to take care of your sick kids along with your sick self.
Although it was a rough week, the end of the week was worth it. My husbands grandparents have a really old house, and we are constantly as a whole family getting together each year and fixing something. Everyone pitches in what they can afford and we fix it together. So this weekend we fixed their living room floor which had caved in it was so old. We completely tore it up and redid everything. Then we painted the room before the carpet was put in. Grandma and Grandpa have to wait until Wednesday for the carpet, but it was very rewarding to see how happy they were. My husband was there for 12 hours yesterday, and the kids and I were there most of the day today spectating. It's kind of like our very home extreme home makeover, except for 1 room a year and not in 7 days. We do what we can and It's enjoyable for the whole family. The flooring had to be done because Grandpa fell through it. That's how old it was.
How excited is everyone to see these 7 houses built in 7 days from extreme home makeover? It's pretty awesome that they are doing this. I can't wait to see everything and how it turns out. It's going to be awesome. I really want to be there for the reveal of the houses. I've been keeping up with them on facebook and the pictures they post. It's pretty awesome.
Until Next Time.....
I think that's really great that your family does that for your grandparents! My family does something similar for our grandparents but they don't involve all the grandkids. They have so many I think it's just hard to try to get everyone involved. We live out of state but I would love to help if I could. About the Extreme Home Makeover....I think its awesome! I also can't wait to see Cunningham Park!
