Spring Break "Vacation"

Nathan and I traveled the exciting and not-so-sunny city of Evansville, IN for his Spring Break this year. After my dad's accident and surgery my parents realized they needed a bit of help with their house in Indiana. As many of you already know, they have been trying to sell the darn thing since June of 2006! Let me just say that the market in Evansville is not a "hopping" one these days! So, in an attempt to sell the house this year (keep those fingers crossed!) we offered up our help over Spring Break so they did not have to do all of the work themselves. Nathan and I arrived on Wednesday and spent the next two days doing our best to get it "open house ready" so that my parents could put it back on the market later in March. Here are the before and after photos of Nathan's project: the garage.

Before...


...and after




Here is our "We're Finished!" celebratory meal at Charlie's. Charlie's is a Mongolian Barbeque restaurant that my family just loves to visit in Evansville. Nathan got quite a kick out of it...especially after a long day of unpacking, repacking and stacking! Check out the heat coming off his plate!



Now for some exciting news. My mom called me today and told me that they are having a showing tomorrow evening! The house isn't even on the market yet!! Apparently their new realtor, that they were already planning to sign with later this month, had a coworker ask if she knew of any properties in Newburgh (the suburb the house is in) in the subdivision Old Hickory (where the house is) that has a pool (THEY HAVE A POOL!)...AHH!!!! So, please keep your fingers crossed that this is the lucky couple that buy my parents house!!!!

By the way, if you're looking for help with the organization of your own garage, Nathan isn't available until his Summer Vacation. Ha!
