Sigh. I am Gushing over Our New Digs...


Okay, just keep in mind that the bathroom is not 100% finished...


But...after surviving the last 7 months sharing a bathroom with 3 young girls, John and I are ecstatic to finally be back into our very own bathroom. Oh, how I have missed clean counter tops with absolutely NO toothpaste droplets anywhere in sight.

We (what am I thinking talking about WE...John has done 99% percent of the work - I come in at the painting parts) are still fine tuning a few things like staining the cabinet doors, some crown molding and other woodwork, at which point we can start painting. A door for the shower and the new curtains have been ordered and should arrive in a couple weeks.

It is beautiful. John does such gorgeous work that it makes it worth living in construction zone for a time. I wish I had taken a few before shots to go with these. The construction photos will have to do.

BEFORE:


This is a view looking through the bathroom door at where the shower and tub used to be.

This is the old tub on it's side - you can even see the wall that separated the shower and tub and even see a small sliver of the old shower.

AFTER:







Next up, the bedroom. Wait, that might be on hold though while we move outside for some of those projects while the weather is still nice.

This sure is a talented family. Every one is getting a make over. Any time you want to do grandma's, come on down. It really is gorgeous. I especially love the walk in shower

That looks very nice. Of course, I'd expect nothing less from John.
