The boy’s grandma (my mother) lives about an hour away, so we don’t get to visit her house as often as we would like to. She does come to our house quite a bit though. My boys get really excited when we announce that we will be visiting Grandma’s house. You see, she lives on a property with 3 acres and a creek. For boys creeks are really cool because they can explore- searching for frogs and other creepy crawly things—because, well…that’s just FUN!
We arrived to Grandma’s house today to do some work. Just before Christmas we surprised Grandma by laying a new floor for her in one of her upstairs bedrooms. It was very well needed and something she kept saying she needed to get done, so we did it for her! (I’ll be posting a video of that soon! My boys are great floor layers!)
Today we finished laying the flooring in the hallway and did some other odd and end jobs. By we, I mostly mean my husband and boys. I helped with some little things…you know, preparing lunch, picking up after my hard workers…things like that.
And then, I enjoyed tea, by the fireplace…with a book.
It was a great day!
