House Cleaning

Last week my family was down in Sacramento. We came during our Spring Break to help mom and dad clean out closets and get the house ready to go on the market.

Yes, after 25 years they are going to sell and look for a one story home that will be more practical for mom. It should be on the market by the middle of April at the latest, so if you know anyone looking for a house on 5 acres…….. Let us know.

Sherrie and I spent the week with mom and dad going through every closet, cabinet, drawer, and getting rid of a ton, packing up some and just organizing everything else.

We really wore mom out a few of the days, going through stuff and making decisions about what to keep and what to get rid of. She did an amazing job.

Here is our DI pile at the end of the week. It just about takes up most of Dad’s garage.

At the end of a long day of cleaning this is where the boys could always be found- playing Angry Birds or sleeping like Dad.

Or if Mom was resting in the recliner, the kids like to take turns in her wheelchair. Emma was very good at getting around in it.

We did get in a little fun too. Saturday right before I left we got to go to Emma’s championship soccer game. They won by the way.
