Our parents work hard for us, so it’s nice to give something back when you can. That’s how 4 sisters felt when they decided to do something kind for their parents as a holiday surprise.
Their big effort required a lot of effort.
Karen and Chip Schoonover live in Conway, South Carolina. Their four daughters are all grown up now, but they absolutely adore their parents.
When Karen and Chip went away on a week-long vacation, the sisters teamed up to give them a big surprise.
They decided to give their parents’ house a makeover.
Just after the couple departed the four girls snuck into the house and began to make changes.
The first step was packing up all their stuff. Over 30 years’ worth of clutter filled the house, and it needed to find a place.
Next, the girls gave the home a paint job. After just these two steps, it was already looking so much better.
They got down and dirty when they had to – and had some fun in the process.
They kept working the entire week.
It was no easy task; the sisters were busy for six full days.
They hustled and bustled so that they could be done with the work before their parents returned home. And they cut no corners and left no stone unturned.
Just take a look at the kitchen before:
The sisters had worked together day and night, and the moment of truth had finally arrived.
Here’s a peek of the kitchen after – and this is just one room!
They were so excited to show off all their hard work to their parents, and they hoped they would like the multiple changes around the house. They waited patiently for their parents to walk in the door and give the verdict.
It was a huge success! Karen and Chip noticed a difference the moment they arrived.
When they saw the clean front yard, Karen admitted that she had wished someone would clean for her while she was away.
Her wish was more than granted. The two were in total shock when they walked through the door and saw their brand new home.
Everything had gotten an upgrade; it looked like an entirely different place.
These parents could not have been more grateful. Their daughters had banded together and taken an entire week out of their lives just to give them this special surprise.
These sisters knew just the right way to show their parents how much they appreciated them. Their sweet surprise is a reminder of how much love flows between family members.
Be sure to see all the hard work and the parents’ heartwarming reactions in the video below.
