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!

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.

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.

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.

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..

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

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.

Very pretty, Tera. I love the red!
Your guest bathroom is cool too.

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".
