Dad's Visit

So my dad came this weekend to help us get the final items checked off our to do list for the move. He was so helpful, we got tons done! With my hand being out of commission for a little while he did so much to help. We put up a new motion light in the alley, planted bushes along the fence and side yard, painted the side door, fixed the irrigation, got rid of old paint, completed the final prep for the moulding, fixed a few outlets...is that enough??? Oh yeah...prepped the yard for new grass. But most importantly, he filled in on the beach volleyball team in my absence, stupid hand. Although he did excellent on the court he hurt his knee and limped around the rest of the visit. I think he'll be OK, but sucks to be hurt. And then at my sister's house last night, while checking on the new dog gate he built he unknowingly stepped off the porch to the steps being moved and went down. 3 foot drop! scraped his knew and sliced his hand....good thing he is headed home, SD seems to have it out for him!

I can't wait to see my parents again very soon. They are meeting us at our new house in San Jose in two weekends to help us get settled in. We will be painting and sprucing the place up in preparation to our stuff being delivered. The movers come on the 26th to pack, load on the 27th and we drive up to the bay on the 28th.

We found a tenant for our house...THANK GOD!!! one big item off my list of worries. Now if my little house will just behave itself for her, we'll be in good shape.

Not sure if anyone looks at this blog anymore but if you do enjoy the volleyball pictures...
