One of my many summer project this year was to repaint our deck. We have done this about every 5 years, but at this point in our lives, it is impossible for my husband to get down on his knees to help. I kind of put it off last year, and it was really looking awful!
Mama happened to mention this to my brother-in-law, while visiting them this summer. One day, out of the blue, he texted me and asked if I had a pressure washer and paint sprayer for painting my deck. I thought he was offering to lend it to me, and told him that if that were the case, I would need an instruction booklet, as I had never used either machine.
Turns out, he was offering and planning to come down and do the job for us! What a Prince! (I highly recommend having a great brother-in-law like him, if you ever have any say in the matter!)
So on a lovely summer weekend, while the rest of us were playing with babies and splashing in the local creek, the deck got power washed, and spray painted in just two days! And what a lovely job he did!
We promptly had a porch party!
