Day 14 Hard Start, Happy Finish

I really can't believe just how tired I am after a days work or wall paper removal. I was so tired and my body ached so much that I barely could get up in the morning.
It was a chore just to do the normal things of life.
Yet, in some weird way, I kinda needed it. 
The hard work felt good. 
It felt good to know my aching was because I was being productive in our first home. 
Although I felt a "good tired" I still was tired. 
So were the kiddos, and they really woke up exhausted.
So being the mom that I am, I changed plans to accommodate for their needs too.
I am still very desperate to find the right color for our house, and I knew the kiddos needed a chance to play, so I thought of the very combination: The Great Park Neighborhood.
They have multi developments and many model homes to see plus one huge fun and adventurous park for the kiddos to play on.
So while I was model home inquiring, the kiddos were playing with their sitter.

Here's their world in the model homes then...

Out at the Great Park

Here's mine

So we all were in a bit of a dream state at these models. It is just so fun to see how things all just come together. My daughter especially loved this room

Then we got a call that it was time to head to the house for daddy was ready to work on our housing projects.
We ran home. (well drove of course) 
I dropped off the kiddos and Eddie and I went to the house.
Only to find a huge surprise: flowers.
While I was dreaming away at the model homes, my daddy was making my dream come true for me.

My dad had surprised me with flowers. Yesterday, he did all the landscaping, today he colorized the place. I was shocked and very happy he did so.

Not only that, my mom was busy away making my dream come true on the inside.
I can't tell you how blessed I am to have both parents working their hearts out for us.
I get emotional about it and teary eyed because I am over whelmed with gratitude.

As much as it's hard to leave the condo that is filled with grandpa's memories, (like my good friend Nicole said) "your parents are putting their roots in that place." Yes, my parents have already created so many memories for our new house. Their fingerprints are all over this place. My My My what a extra special home this will be.

Well, so as we continued through the day, my dad gave me some gardening tips.

Eddie and I got to work side by side. Wallpaper Wallpaper you are coming down!!!

Then it was time to call it a night.

How's that for curb appeal?
Blessings.
P.S. To all my family in other states, looking forward to having you visit when this Sweet Anna project is finished.
