To prepare for our Open House, one of the things we needed desperately to get done was to get all of our windows washed...inside and out! After Lee did a final count, he came up with 51 windows, and 12 doors (exterior and interior with glass) which ended up with a total of 593 individual panes of glass which had to be cleaned inside and out. We went through 12 rolls of paper towels, 4 medium pizzas, a box of Hostess Cupcakes, and a lot of Coke, Sprite, and fruit punch! Whew...what a tiring day!
But don't think that we did it all by ourselves. Oh no...we have the best family we could ask for who all came out to help with the process. How could they resist when they received such a lovely invite on their email 2 weeks ago...
Here are some pictures from the day...
Lee getting some scraping done as well as washing from when we had the outside painted (2 years ago)
Lucas and Colby doing what they do best...eating pizza and staying out of the way!
Mom in the laundry room!
Bonnie on the outside of the sunroom!
Maggie waiting for food to drop from the table...naturally!
Dad on the outside of the kitchen!
Becca even threw in some mirror washing too...so add that to the list!
Lee and Robert (behind the ladder) braved the cold, rainy weather and cleaned as much as they could under the eaves of the house!
The boys doing what they do second best...playing the Wii and staying out of the way!
And where are the baby girls, you ask? Well Savi and Ella were on my hips and Virginia was on my bladder for most of the day! No wonder I was so sore from not washing the windows that day!
A HUGE BIG THANK YOU to Mom, Dad, Robert, Bonnie, and Becca for all that you did to help clean! We appreciate it more than you will ever know!! See you in the Spring for the semi-annual party...yeah right...they won't open their emails from me anymore!!
