I was feeling a little down Saturday morning... Bryan had to work, my car battery was dead, and there were clothes EVERYWHERE in my bedroom due to the curtain rod in the closet that has been broken since we moved to this house.
Then, there was a knock at the door... Uncle Colin (who lives in New Mexico and was down visiting Grandma next door) unexpectedly asked me for my car keys because he wanted to check under the hood of my car to see what was going on. Then, next thing I know he and Grandma were gone. I couldn't find them anywhere. And then, they came back with a brand new battery for my car. Uncle Colin put it in and wola-I have a working car again!!! Yeah! Thank you so much Uncle Colin for working on my car and Grandma for paying for the battery until we can pay you back-you are both so awesome to do this for me.
So, at this point, I was very overwhelmed with happiness. But then it got even better!
Tate and I got to attend my Grandma Manning's 80th Birthday Party. My Grandma is just too cute. I love her so much!
So then after the party, my Dad randomly offered to come help me with stuff around the house. I just mentioned to him about my closet and he volunteered to build me a brand new closet system-right away too. He headed to Home Depot and got all the supplies while I took stuff out of the closet. Here's a picture of the mess before.
And then just 4 hours later this is how my closet looked...(This is just a portion of the closet. It is about 10 feet long and the camera just couldn't capture it all because the closet doors were on). No one is as talented with building shelves as my Dad.
Here is a picture of him and Tate afterwards.
Dad you are my hero-literally!!! You are the best.
Maria, this is such an uplifting post! I'm so glad that your day was turned around. Isn't family just THE BEST??
