House painting - a holiday camp out - Real Mum story on MoM

9 Comments

We are currently painting our house – everything is away as we are doing walls, ceilings, doors and skirtings. Luckily our family is happy to enjoy the holiday camp out with no tv and limited kitchen supplies. It wouldn’t have been our first pick of a great family holiday, but is turning out to be fantastic – and we will have a fresh house too!!

What a great idea. You’ve certainly made the best of an otherwise disruptive situation.

Better to do it now than when everyone has to be at school or work.

Yeah it’s great when you can get it done and stay in backyard. We desperately need to paint whole house but with the kids and sooo much stuff it’s so hard.

We have done this a number of times and love it! Feels like a bit like of a mini break after all of the hard work of painting during the day!
