Things from last week...

Andrew's new home

We went to Valdosta, Georgia to visit Andrew last week. He bought a house and we got to help him get moved in. We hauled a U-Haul trailer down with furniture from Ray's mother's apartment, plus some pieces we had he could use. the end result looks pretty good. I think Andrew is satisfied with the way it looks too. He is very happy to have his own place and not have to have room mates.

I decided that if your child isn't going to get married and buys a house instead, that it was an excuse to help that child set up his home. We went out and bought curtains, mini-blinds, bathroom accessories and picture frames. Ray helped Andrew screen in his porch and helped him pick out a barbecue grill. Men have to have their priorities after all. By the time Friday came around, all of us were satisfied that we had the house to a point where Andrew was settled and wouldn't have to get a whole lot more. We didn't eat out while we were down there and I think Andrew enjoyed the Mom cooked meals too. I had a lot of fun, so the working vacation was worth it.
