May Give Announcement

Our May give is to help Grandma with her yard and spring cleaning her house for spring/summer. Here is a list that she gave me as to what needs done. Grandma will supply everything needed for each job- she just needs the labor done. If you are interested in helping with any of the following jobs, please let her know what you can do and when you can do it. She would prefer that over all of us showing up at once and tripping over each other.

Outside:

The maple tree needs trimmed (if it is unsafe for us to do, she will hire it done)

The lawn needs fertilized

She needs a new pipe put in along her driveway (She said the Stapelman family has already begun this job and will most likely be the ones to finish it)

Inside:

The living room needs painted

The living room and bedroom curtains need to be taken down, washed, and rehung

The kitchen and laundry room walls need wiped down

The kitchen cupboards need to have a new coat of verathane (excuse me if that is misspelled!)

The mugs in the kitchen need taken down, washed, and put back

There may be a few other items added as grandma may notice more things along the way!

Thanks for all your help and we'll see everyone soon!

  2. We are not going to set a date for everyone to show up. Just call Grammy and set up a time if you would like to come and help. Thanks!

  3. Since Tarra, John, the kids and I weren't going to be in town during May, we decided to help an elderly lady that has done a lot to help Tarra instead. Sort of an adopted grandma! We weeded her flower gardens and trim trees. It was fun and I know she really appreciated the help.
