Workers

  Ever since we arrived in Virginia is has been non-stop projects, todo lists and trips to Lowes.  Grandfather has been an amazing helper (and so have I)

We have hung curtains on almost all the windows

I got to hand screws to grandfather and put the poles in the curtains.

Just one of the many, many windows in my house - the Dining Room

 

I got to help paint the garage walls - cool gator orange and blue racing stripes!

Here is what it looked like when we pulled the tape off.

Today we placed 3 rainbarrels around the house, these 2 are under the stairs.  We had to dig down several inches to lay pavers and rocks and level everything under the barrels.

Here they are so far.  We still need to add more rocks around the pavers and connect the gutter diverters

This is in a little nook right when you enter the house from the garage (thanks IKEA),  A little bench for putting on my shoes and a couple floating shelves for putting wallets, keys, supermans, etc.  Mom is going to add some hooks for backpacks or coats.

We also mounted an American Flag on the front of the house.  You can also see the other rain barrel we placed.

 Overall we have been very busy!  I get to help around the house which I love, but I wish I had my tool box with me (it is on the moving truck)  Grandfather will be here for a few more days and the projects seem to have no end in site!
