  • Medieval Times, Medieval Measures

    December 30, 2008
    We had a great Christmas, and even though it was quite hectic, it was fun to spend it with so many members of our family. Once the craziness of the holidays settled down, my mom, Tom, and I had a good time taking Sean and Beth to the Medieval Times…

  • 2 Cases of Beer

    December 10, 2008
    Once again I am surprised how long it has taken me to make a post, so I'll just get right to it.First, the bathrooms are almost completely done. Thanks go out to my brother-in-law Pete for coming over on Black Friday and helping us knock out some of the finishing…
  • Slowly But Surely

    November 19, 2008
    Even though it's been awhile since our last post, there has been progress made on the bathroom projects. The new vinyl floor has been installed and the cabinets in the main bathroom have been painted white. Once the trim is hung we'll have that bathroom done (unless we decide to…
  • Poop Bathroom Project Update

    October 27, 2008
    It was back to work on the master bathroom this past week. The walls have gone from poop brown to "Cumberland Fog". Much calmer and brighter! We also hung the light fixture today. Unfortunately after we put it up we realized that although now that it is centered over the…
  • Fall Weekend Fun

    October 21, 2008
    The master bathroom project was put on hold this weekend, as we spent the weekend with my sister and her family in Iowa. Friday night we went to my brother-in-law's (Tom) football game (he is the local high school football head coach). It was an exciting game and his team…
  • Poop Bathroom Project Begins

    October 14, 2008
    For those of you that have visited us in the past, you know we have affectionately named our master bathroom the "poop" bathroom. Not because this is what you do in the bathroom, but because the color of the wall (and it might inspire you to poop). While I was…
  • Kinda of Sorta Finished Bathroom

    October 3, 2008
    For now the bathroom is finished! The towel racks are installed and the shower curtain hung. Now we just have to decide if we will paint or replace the vanity, replace the counter, and which floor to go with. But for now, it's operational once again.
  • Yellow Bathroom

    October 1, 2008
    I'm happy to report that progress has been made on the bathroom project. The walls have been painted "Banana Cream" yellow and the light fixture has been hung. Although yellow is Sean's favorite color, we did not choose this color because of him. However, we did ask him which shade…
  • Bathroom Project Begins!

    September 28, 2008
    The bathroom project has begun!! After debating if we really wanted to start this project this weekend or not, we decided to go for it. The project slowed down when we removed the existing lighting fixture to find instead of just the electric box, but a 3"x7" gap in the…
