I called my folks in the morning because I forgot to put the plate from the microwave inside the one that we gave them. I wanted my Mom to know that I had it and not to go out and buy one! Well my Dad answered the phone and asked if we needed some help today. I said, "YES!" We still had not built any beds to date, no bookcases, and Abs's dresser was still sitting in the garage. While we were considering not working too long, I also know we needed to get things moving before the next set of PODS arrive. Well my brother Jason came over with my Dad and they went to building!!! It was fantastic! But let me just say that it did take over 5 hours to get it all done. There were a few side steps but nothing that lasted too long. I am ever so grateful for family. Joshua and Abigail were thrilled to see their "complete" rooms. It really does feel like home!!!!
My Mom also drove her car over to pick up Joshua and Abigail and take them back to her house to swim in her pool. It was extremely hot here!! I was thankful she did that as I know they would have been bored out of their minds. Well maybe not that bored. When she called to say she would take them for the day, they were playing Monopoly. But it was much better for them to be out of the house. NO distractions is a good thing.
As you can see by the pictures, the rooms are coming along nicely. We just need to get stuff hung on the walls and we are good to go. Honestly, that won't happen until next week. But very excited to have that "completed" feeling.

So glad you got some help. The rooms look great!
