Painting Party!

Zak & Nate working?? Not really sure, Zak's roller doesn't have any paint. Think he was working more on that sucker than the roller.... Nate of course is goofing off, not sure if he did do any work?
Jamey & Noah working hard in the hallway.

Simon was cutting in & getting the edges.....


Nate giving his two thumbs up to the work being done. I guess he thought he was the supervisor... it would explain why he didn't get much work done. Ha ha ha


David got the fun chore of painting the cealing! Lucky guy....

Last night our family went over to Grandma & Grandpa Prescott's house to help David & Dee Dee with the chore of painting the inside of G&G's house before they come home from their mission. As you can see we had a good time doing it! I am so thankful that my boys are big enough & nice enough to help out.... They actually wanted to help! (Imagine that!?). David & Dee Dee have taken care of everything pertaining to G&G while they were on their mission, so this was the least we could do to help them in getting their house ready for their return.

We are all taking turns helping getting the house ready - today Dee Dee & her boys as well as Brien are finishing up the painting. I think Kevin is coming tonight or tomorrow to help with any last minute painting and/or clean up. It really is a family affair! What is that old saying? The family that works together, stays together? Ha ha ha... Not sure if that's what it is, but I think that is true!! Not much longer & we will have Grandma & Grandpa back home with us. We are so excited & so proud of them.

Want to come & paint my house? I didn't think so. Glad to see you are all chipping in getting the house ready for Max & Joy's return. How exciting. They'll be happy to come home to a nice, clean & newly painted house.

That's great that you got pictures. I never thought of that. I think Troy and Nate are related. He did help a little, and escorted me to get more paint. HA! Eric did the yard work while Jason, Brien and I painted today. We got it all done, so Kevin lucked out! The next big thing is moving day Saturday. Too bad I have a baby shower to go to.

Awesome family get together. Anyone want to come do mine? Since we have no "family" out here can we adopt yours? (at least for the party)

I"m sure Joy and Max will be pleased with your hard work. Can't believe time is almost here for them to return. They have always been great examples to us and we love them dearly.
