Itscrazy | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:42 pm     They seemed to be a sweet and loving family! Wasn't it funny when Gerry's wife said "I always tell him to wash his hands" LOL She knows his faults and loves him dearly anyway! |
Llkoolaid | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:43 pm     Off2cthwizrd, we must have the same decorator. |
Bbdiva | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:44 pm     Earthmother is early army surplus any thing close to early american college tacky? I still have my orange crates and milk crates from my college days... just now I don't have to use them to sit on or as a tv stand. lol Oh my gosh I am admitting to my desert white trash heritage again. |
Babyruth | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:47 pm     Our bathroom has a 50's-60's Florida theme- We have a wonderfully/horribly tacky table lamp (on a wall shelf) made from a big conch shell (the whole room glows pink from the nightlight inside the shell at night), complete with tiny plastic palm trees around it, as well as a framed collection of old postcards featuring the original Weeki Wachee mermaids. There is also a state dinner plate with all the little tourist sites painted on. Some tacky ashtrays filled with Florida shells and beach glass add a extra touch to this "interesting", very bright blue and white bathroom. The rest of the house is...um...rather eclectic, to put it nicely. A hodgepodge collection of world travels, family antiques and refinished yard sale treasures. |
Earthmother | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:48 pm     I thought the washing hands comment Gerry's wife made was funny too. If that is the worst thing your husband does then she is one lucky lady. I think being a good husband (not abusive or rude) and a good father amounts to a whole lot more than some nit-picking teenagers values (or lack of). I think spending the afternoon hanging out with Gerry's family (and eating food he prepared) would be great!! I think I would be quite comfortable in his home as well as in his company. |
Zachsmom | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 01:55 pm     I agree Earthmother..I adored his wife..it brought tears to my eyes when she stated how they both see each other as they were at age 20... I forget who sings the song "I want to be in love like that" ( Country & Western song..I think John Micheal Montgomery)..but that song immediately came to mind after seeing Gerry's family.. |
__Tera | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 03:33 pm     I painted my guest bathroom black and framed b&w pics of mine & my hubby's growing up memories (t.v. shows, movies, bands, etc.) I am in the finishing process of my master bath in a colonial type theme. Painted the walls a deep red, and installed ceramic tile. I snapped a few shots, if anyone is interested in taking a peek, click here |
Zachsmom | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 03:40 pm     __Tera..can I come over and take a bath in your tub? lol..I'd kill for a tub like that.. |
__Tera | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 03:43 pm     LOL, Zachsmom. All my friends and family ask that too. |
Csnog | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 04:06 pm     It would be nice to spend a day with Gerry and his family but not any other HG. There did not seem to be a script for his family interview. I also think his wife has a funny personality. |
Itscrazy | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 04:08 pm     Very pretty, Tera. I love the red! Your guest bathroom is cool too. |
Tre34 | Friday, August 23, 2002 - 04:14 pm     Gerry's children are his "spittin image". They looked like a great family filled with lots of love and fun. Although I would not appreciate many knicks and knacks (am a min.) I can state that their house certainly looked like a "home". |
