My dad isn't a dandy, but he is quite handy and spent a lot of time with me on home-improvement projects over spring break. He fixed things I didn't even know were broken or that I just thought had to be replaced. Best of all, he helped me hang beadboard around the bar in my kitchen where there was formerly carpet. Needless to say, it looks SO much better. Hooray for dad!! (He thought we look like a couple of assassins in that picture.)
As you can see, my kitchen still has a LOOONG way to go, but my cupboards arrived yesterday, and they'll be installed in a couple of months (judging from the speed in which I get things done). I still have to paint them. I wish my dad were here to help me with that. I think I need a visit a few times a week.
Other than house projects, we had a great time with mom, dad and Shannon. I can't remember what we did because my memory depends on photos. Unfortunately, my camera was out of battery most of their trip, but I know whatever we did, it was fun. The pic below is what I think Shannon and mom were doing while dad and I were jimmy rigging the house.

Looks good so far. And I like Spencer's hair!
ty needs photos to remember what we did too. but sometimes even with photos he still can't remember. is it wrong that sometime i dread growing old with him? :)
I love the picture of you and your dad. It looks like you had a good time.
Awesome! I love your dad! I'm so glad part of your fam came to visit and to help out a bit. I bet it was nice to have mom there too! YAY!
And, I hate it when my camera is broke or the battery is dead. I feel lost!
I forgot to mention that the bead board looks great! Good choice! Can't wait to see the cupboards when they're done! Wish I was coming to visit and I'd help you!
thanks for the pictures. it looks good.
I think you and Dad look more like you are posing for the cover of a home improvement magazine.
I am glad you posted the pictures. Before, I'd only seen an exterior photo of the house. Lookin' good!
nice work! I can't believe there was carpet there before. thats awesome. How great that they came to visit. I bet you are excited for your trip!!
