Thank you Claytons...

... for the great visit.  Hutson started asking for Grammy and Papa as soon as he got up from his nap on Wednesday.

Usually while Donna and Jerry are visiting we have a list of things for Jerry Sr. to do.  We don't invite them to come and work on their vacation, however, Jerry Sr. can't sit still so why not have some small jobs for him to accomplish.  In the past these 'small' jobs have included installing and painting all the trim in the house, helping lay tile, finish floors, tear up floors, refinish floors, put in sod, put in windows, hang drapes, etc., just some little stuff to make sure his hands aren't idle.  This visit wasn't much different, although I have to say I think he probably enjoyed the jobs more than he has in the past, I'm not sure he lost any weight this time.  There have been a few visits where he worked off a few lbs sweating out in the Texas summer sun.

Here are just a few things he managed to get done while here this time....

Put together the chairs I got for Christmas...

Built Jerry's wine racks for the wine room...  we filled it up pretty quickly, I guess we need to start drinking!

He put up the shelves in both of the boys bedrooms that have been sitting against the wall for at least 4 months...

He hung the letters in Wheeler's room and then had the fantastic idea to put trim around it.... I love it!

He built this little bench with cubby's for my laundry room... it still needs to be painted.  Don't worry Senior I will have this painted before the next visit in August! 

So thank you for everything!  While Jerry Sr. is working away, Donna spends time loving on my boys which is awesome, they love their Grammy!

It was a great visit and we are already looking forward to the next one...
