Sprucing Up the Outside

My son was home a weekend ago and turned this…

into this!

I was so proud of him.  He did an awesome job.  He did some landscaping around the flag pole too.  I just love it when the kids come home and help…it makes all those times of their “helping” when they were little totally worth it.

Then the guys got busy with this….

pressure washing the house.  It was totally worth it.  The siding hadn’t been washed in four years and it REALLY needed it.  After the new addition was finished, we could really see how dirty it looked.  Look close and you’ll see where it’s been washed.

I am happy to say, I didn’t have to help with either of these jobs….but sad to say, I just washed the windows two weeks ago and had to rewash them…UGH.  The house is ready for the big graduation party on Sunday…now I better get the food made!
