My dad passed away 12 years ago also and he was big into woodworking and would always be making something.. he sold a lot of his work to make extra money on the side but we kept a good bit also, I have the dining room table he built and a coffee table and a bunch of other big items and also a lot of craft items. We were also building a dollhouse together since I was a weeee little girl.. the thing is just MASSIVE and we never did get to finish the inside. I have it at my moms right now since it is SO super heavy and I really didnt want to move it all around house to house but I told her when we move this year I plan on taking it and finishing up the inside with my fiance finally. I miss him so much but I love having his work around to remind me of him everyday.kristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07231690169219333707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5763730258323026627.post-28085559474992998202012-01-24T19:17:06.559-08:002012-01-24T19:17:06.559-08:00I love your story.
