Ellie's Bath Gets A Floor

That's right a REAL floor!

Hey y'all, it's been a fast two weeks. My brother tied the knot over the weekend in Minneapolis, MN and it was a great time. I'd like to just say out loud that I called it first here! Needless to say that took most of the weekend and progress has been slow, but things are still moving along.

Over the past three weeks Meredith has had someone in the bathroom in the hallway laying in the floor, framing in the tub surround and the tile layer came in to lay necessary tiles so that I could install the plumbing for the tub. It's going smoothly and we're having to wait a few weeks for the tile to come in so that that next step can be taken, but hopefully it's supposed to be here in the next 2-3 days - yahoo!!! Man that means a shower IN MY HOUSE in about a month! I'm so excited I could pee.
Built-in spaces for 'girly junk'/The promise of a tub

And a new shower too



On the burner also was work by yours truly and Shana to discover and decide upon the tile and the layout for the master bathroom. I've ordered that and it's all in today! I'll pick it up probably on Saturday and start working on that room with volunteers this weekend. We'll need to take out the window, move the plumbing to match the NEW vanity, install drywall, move the plumbing to match the tub and install new Durarock for the floor and shower. we definitely have out work cut out for ourselves, but the bus is moving again and it feels great! Hopefully we have some volunteers over the next couple of weeks and we can knock out some of the SIX sheets of to-do-list items. Here's to getting it all done!
