Gratitude: Special kind of friends...

There are at least five people in the state of Texas tonight who are absolutely exhausted.

Two of those are my dear friends Linda and Mrs. Skinny.

The other three is our little family. Pumpkin alone was as tired as I have seen her in a while. Aunt Linda wore her out.

These two wonderful ladies drove down to help us paint.

Not just any friend will roll up their sleeves and roll on some paint.

We worked hard. So very hard

The great room, foyer and dining room are done. The stairway still needs to be finished but the kitchen is only ONE step away from being finished. Chris got it textured today. We paint it tomorrow.

And while we are all completely wiped, I had such a wonderful time visiting.

I love both of those women. Loved getting caught up on their life. Loved watching them play with Pumpkin. Loved watching her play with them. Loved knowing they will forever be a part of turning someone else's house into our home.

Words can never express how grateful I am for your love and friendship.

  1. It was our pleasure! We look forward to a return trip to see the finished product. Wish I could have seen Chris' scaffolding. All week long I've been saying "yeah!" :)
    XOXO. Mrs. Skinny
