My parents came to visit for a week...We now have the upper cupboards up in our kitchen, the bottom ones were moved into place after this picture. Mom wiped them all down for us, along with washing our dishes at the apartment and packing boxes for us. She also came along with me to several of the clubs that I was visiting. It didn't seem like it'd been 2 1/2 years since they'd been here! It was fun to show them our house and the progress, since they hadn't seen any of it in person.
Dad and David spent many hours working at the house. They were able to get so many things off of our "to-do before move-in" list. I think we tired dad out a bit as he tried to keep up with David. He did a great job at working long days, though. They installed our bedroom door, now there's just two more doors (besides closets) left for David along with the odds and ends of other things.
We took mom and dad to experience Canadian culture...eating poutine from a chip truck. We confused them a bit because we went to a "chip truck" that's not really a truck, unlike most of them around here. Dad didn't seem convinced that gravy on fries with cheese is scrumptious...poor American.
