It was a scary beginning as our painters found a lot of rot!!












Dad turned 70!!! We had a party for him on the other side of the duplex as there is more room to road over there ....

Quite the bonfire!!

Mom gets a real kick out of seeing how people blow out their candles!!

Dad did alot of thinking this week ... he is kind of the king of decks as he's built so many...Carrie and I were nervous .... it was alot of wood and it poured!!!

The stairs were so rough, I thought we were just going to used the stairs as a base for wooden steps, but dad saw something we didn't, so he designed something proper ...

We couldn't see what he was seeing ....

It looks like a small kitchen ... but there was so much painting!!


Mike and Isaac attacking the front door! It needed so much help!!

Here is Susan ....helping with the painting ..

Here is mom, in her happy place, but so much rain!! She removed and transplanted things - she made the yard look amazing!!!

So much cupboard painting!!


It was really fun following Mike through the various aisles ....

A&W morning coffees ... and deck building ....


So rainy!!

Here is Paul helping to fix the sunroom ...


Carrie's thought on how to fix the back wall ... it looks so good!!

Trent came one morning to help me re-install the sink .... the best part of the whole things has been everyones hands ...













Sandi came to stage the house and the yard for pictures and for tenants to walk through ....













My sister and I ....
