The main reason for my trip to Seattle was to help Mom get her garage and basement organized.
Here is a couple of Before pics...
Ahhh Mom I didn't get any After pics of the garage...
Will you please send me a couple?
And here are a few Before of the basement storage room...
The main room, was all nice and neat... but here it is when we pulled everything out of the storage room... we did get it back to normal in the main room... but I can't believe Mom didn't freak out when we started this... yikes!
There was allot of stuff in there...
But the After was so worth it... she even has some empty shelves to grow into.
Yay! We stayed busy busy busy cleaning and organizing and sorting, but it was so worth it. And we managed to have some fun inbetween too.
Like "Tacos" with Robert and Alisha and Lillian...
And dinner with Bill Gunter and Mary...
And Lynn and Jerry...
And some fun times with Ralph and Panda... eating dehydrated fruit and homemade beef jerkey!!
I got the secret recipe, it's the best Ive ever had!!
We were able to see Jerad for his birthday party slash football game.
And play the longest game of memory EVER... the princess pack has allot of cards. Just sayin...
We inturrupted the game to open presents...
Fun, but he was afraid making him sit in the middle with his back to the TV he would miss something...
But he was a super good sport...
And then it happened... yep, TOUCHDOWN!!!
I can't believe I got it on film... so funny!
Oh and we fixed the infamous door handle at Mom's that has been upside down, falling off in your hand and never quite worked right. Yay!!
"We" do good work!
And breakfast with Bryan... we missed Shelby, but so fun to see him.
And his cute RX8...
And of course time with Brooklynn...
We stopped into a craft fair and she got to preview Santa and ask him some lingering questions about how those reindeer actually fly?
It was so cute and he did a much better job than my impression from "The Santa Claus" movie about the slip stream effect :)
And who doesn't love them a sleep over slumber party with Pascal and friends?
It was a great time, a fun visit and catch up with family... but yes, it went way too fast.
And I can't believe I was in Seattle all week and never went downtown... crazy, but just how it went this trip.
