my dad is awesome

My dad heard we were moving so he threw all his saws and tools in the car and drove over to help us out. The greatest thing about him is that he just says, "what do you want me to do?" When I say I want to put wainscoting up on the walls in the boys rooms and install wood floors-1x8 pine planks that I plan to paint white- he doesn't say---"why do want wainscoting?" or "you can't paint wood-especially on the floor" or "you can't use pine for flooring" or "do you know how much wood cost?" He didn't even say that he'd never done either, even though he hadn't. He just says, "OK. Let's do it" and pulls out his tape measure. Like I said, he's awesome.

I have painted these rooms since these pics...not the floors yet,  just the walls.

here's where i'm headed with the floors (though I don't mind the gaps in the pictures below, my planks are closer together than the ones shown).
