Ok, this is mostly for my brother's and Sister.
My husband was apparently a bit fed up with the state of the garage.
Funny thing is that I think Grandpa secretly thinks it is everyone else's mess and not his.
We all know the truth...Pack Rat!
So this was Barry's un-official Mother's Day Gift to Granny.
She can actually walk a full 360 around her car!
Seriously Ya'll! Look at all that room at the front of her Durango!
We are talking a work bench with room to use the tools and like 4 feet of standing room!
People, this is big.

Want to know the secret?
Start to clean out garage while grandpa is still around.
Let him put a few things in the Garbage and charity piles. (If he has 2 things in either pile this is a momentous occasion.)
Next, and this is important. Send Grandpa off on some errand for like 4 hours.
Now, throw stuff away, take it to charity, organize, move and rearrange enough that when he returns he is so impressed that he never misses what he didn't know or remember that he had.
(Like 8 shovels, 12 axes plus 4 or 5 axe handles and so on and so forth)
Can't wait to hear what Great Grandpa Nielsen has to say about this. It should be good.

Kelli is especially wonderful! It really looks Mother's Day was a success with all of the surprises and homemade gifts! You deserve it. I hope you had a great day!
That especially wonderful was my fill in the blank by the way!
