The Gift


 I received the best gift this week from my oldest Grandson.  When my husband and I purchased our home a little over 3yrs. ago we had to be selective on updates.  I wanted to replace the "pink" kitchen counter top... but our money didn't cover all of our WANTS..
 so we settled on the NEEDS.  Grandson # 1..
 is getting ready to serve a Mission in Chicago.
 He has  been working with a contracter and used that knowledge
 to make my dream become a reality. 
 He did a wonderful job and I'm so thankful for his ability to conquer obstacles
 and have the patience to be with
 Grandma and Grandpa for three days during the install. 
 We enjoyed Andrew so much,during this time..
we shared some yummy dinners out ( paid by Grandpa )
 and I will think of Andrew often
 as I wipe off my NEW CONTERTOP..

 Thanks Andrew for the Gift of Love & Labor!

                                                  I wanted to share our journey with you!


NO MORE PINK COUNTER TOP!

THANK YOU FOR THE GIFT OF LOVE ANDREW!
