Bathroom is tiled and shower ready!

Merry Christmas! Our shower is finally useable! As soon as we put the shower head on and seal the grout we can finally shower in our Fuller house!! Komodo took the maiden voyage in the bathtub- great success. We just need to caulk around it so us humans can use it. I'm glad we sprung for the expensive faucet fixtures- they are beautiful and we would always think about them if we didn't. I'll post pictures in a few days when the bathroom phase #1 is done.

Though it looks a million times better with that tile, we still have a ton of things to do: drywall, paint, add trim, add outlets and lighting, and add the vanity and sink, and eventually put in our glass doors for the shower. Phew. One day this project will be done! At least we can see how nice it's looking to keep us going...

Eric and I took a day to clean Logan. We have pretty much all of the wood debris out of there and it's ready for framing. There are still some insulation fluffies but without masks we couldn't remove them.

Now that we are both college graduates (!!) we will have more time to spend working on our houses. Merry Christmas!

Full Bath Inspiration

Someone is coming to finish the shower floor this weekend and then Eric & will tile that puppy so we can have a shower! I've been pretty into Numbers and whipped up this "inspiration spread" so everyone can share my vision: Hm. It copied strange. I'll work on that next time.

Full bath

Well, we see the makings of our bathroom of our dreams. Though it's taking a little longer than we thought/ hoped, it will definitely be worth the wait. Finally. A photo posted of our full bath in progress. It's our "pottery barn" bath . Good thing its so pretty & I know that It will be worth the wait otherwise I'd be more flustered at the time situation. Also, I ordered faucets yesterday. Beautiful faucets at 40% off. Unfortunately, they are so expensive that even 40% is outrageous. Owning a home/ having expensive taste is not going to be good for us!

Eric and I finally had a day off to just clean the house last week before our thanksgiving guests arrives. It looks like a real house now! We even have the guest room almost functional (except for the minor detail of a mattress...). So it's been really exciting to see our house become a little more home-like.

Also, our furnace has been turning off more frequently. It's a good thing we were financially and mentally prepared to have another furnace installed otherwise we might be freaking out. What we weren't prepared for was the kitchen sink/drain leaking. We have yet to address that. Ugh.

Sorry, Logan. You're on hold again... I feel like this may be a reoccurring statement :/
