We spent part of the 4th of July weekend in Yucaipa helping my family fix up their rental property. There was a lot of work to do and everyone chose a project to complete. I helped with painting the bedrooms and fireplace. I know fun stuff, but let me tell you painting is hard work. Steve helped with the hard to reach spots, his height definitely came in handy. He also helped with removing carpet, base boards and prepping to lay tile. My Dad and David love working on house projects. I think it's a father-son bonding thing. They showed Steve how to work some man tools and now he is ready to paint our place. The house isn't finished yet, it's a work in progress. Here are some of the before pictures.
The living room after the wallpaper was stripped and before the paint.
The hall bath. My Uncle John and Dad positioning tile. Too busy and focused to smile for the camera.
The kitchen before. They are going to rearrange some of the cupboards and paint them all white.
My mom hard at work and asking "This picture isn't going to go on your blog, is it?" Of course not.
Steve working on the hallway.
Uncle John and Dad checking out something.
David prepping the mortar, I think that's what it's called.
The tile going in the kitchen, hallway and entry way.
At this point my work was done.
He was done too. That's his I'm ready for dinner face.
