Jess decided his 2 week break for Christmas would be a good time for us to take down the ugly fake wood paneling that was in the playroom.
So for the last 3 days he worked on that, and then insulating and drywalling, with his parents, Dan, and my brother Matt.
It got tough keeping the little ones occupied and away from the construction zone. Luckily aunt Cassie was exciting enough to keep their attention for a while. We also rented some Christmas movies and bought fake mustaches. Of course.
Lily also was there while her daddy did some electrical stuff for us. She played Santa, and Paige and Cason took turns on her lap to ask for gifts. Paige played Santa once or twice too.
The room's not done, but it already looks so much better, and feels noticeably warmer now that we actually have insulation. Paige and Cason were so happy this afternoon when we finally let them step foot in there. They did this for several minutes.

I think I had the skills/knowledge to help you with hanging dry wall when I was 14, but have long since forgotten. Also, I don't want to.
That's okay, you're not strong enough anyway. So we couldn't have used you.
