Preparing For Guests

 We cancelled the walk this morning and that gave me enough time to get the 5th wheel hot water turned on and the air conditioner then message the guest that the camper was ready for him. When I came in it was almost 7:00 am. Mark decided he would like an sausage, cheese and veggi omelet for breakfast.  I made a 6 egg omelet and divided it into thirds giving Mark one third and putting the other 2/3rds in the fridge. 

I was at mom's by 8:00 am to pick her up for our morning at the Berean office. We got stuck in road construction for about 5 minutes on two lane 116 of which one lane was closed. 
Everyone had already arrived by the time we made it to that office. If you would like to read about our morning there click HERE. Skip took the mail so we were able to drive straight  home once done.  As we had pecan sticky buns for our treat at Berean we were not hungry for lunch until around 1:00 pm.  Mom was in her chair listening to Aunt Jinnie read while I made us each a ham and cheese sandwich stuffed with a juicy salted tomato and crunchy lettuce. Karin arrived as we were eating. I left after lunch to start cleaning up the barn for the group coming in on Friday and Saturday. The first job was to load the golf cart with cardboard boxes for the burn pile, all the camping chairs for the playground, Mark's wet dry vac for Mark's garage and more.
The balls, scooters and roller blades were all moved to the corner so I could sweep. The kitchen area was cleaned up and the new highchair brought in and put at a table. It works perfectly, is just the right size to fit under the table. 
The chairs were put around the tables. 
Phil, Anna and Taegan arrived about then. Anna and Taegan cut the wood for the shelves for the master bathroom closet.
Phil and Anna got the shelves up quickly .
Earlier Anna had finished sanding the stairs and got the first coat of paint on them.
The next big job was the chairs. Phil installed the racks while I carried the chairs out of the closet for  Taegan and Mark to hang them. 
Mark had purchased 6 racks, they worked so well he ordered 8 more.
Taegan was putting the chair stickers on her shirt before the chairs were hung. She was well decorated.
The two pictures below are of the new bathroom shelves. Anna is going to buy colored boxes for the supplies we will need to store in there.

Now that we have the neat wooden highchair I would like to give the old one away. It is in great shape but takes up a lot of room.
If anyone knows someone who could use it please let me know soon, otherwise I will post it on Hanna City Happenings on Facebook. 
Below is a short video of some of the work that got done. 
We came to a good stopping point close to 8:00 pm. Mark got a late supper tonight but he liked it.
