EXCAVATOR










Today Bruce rented a mini excavator. We attempted to pull out the stumps, but we will have to rent a stump grinder for those. We did accomplish some of what we set out to do and a little more. We did get the railroad ties removed,we got rid of the basketball hoop and we pulled out some extremely overgrown shrubs in the back yard. The mini excavator cost 150 dollars to rent, we used it all day long. We may now be future skin cancer patients, but at least we got rid of the ugly railroad ties, basketball hoop and overgrown shrubs.

Masterbath Shower Fixtures


Jessica found out the hard way oil rubbed bronze is the most expensive finish, hence the reason it has taken some time to finish our masterbath. One of the valves is missing in the picture because it was scratched, so Jessica sent it back to Kohler. Jessica refuses to spend 300.00 and have a scratched fixture. So we are awaiting the arrival of the new valve.

Say Goodbye To The Railroad Ties, Tree Stumps and Baskeball Hoop.


Tommorow we will start ripping out the railroad ties, stumps and basketball hoop in the back yard. We will then begin to putting up a new vinyl fence once we have done the demo.

Rabbit Palace











Bruce made this rabbit hutch for my mothers Rabbit. This rabbit will never want to go back into its classroom cage again. I call this the Rabbit Hilton.


Uptairs Guest Bathroom UPDATE!!









It's been awile since we have updated our blog. Bruce is home from Kuwait. We are starting to get back to work on our home renovation project. Above is the bathroom that we have been working. I can't believe how much larger this bathroom feels. We will be adding a second vanity on the other side of the cabnit.

Fireplace NEARLY complete!







I had to share the picture of our nearly finished fireplace. We still need to paint the wall behind the clock, spray paint the vent covers on the fire place and find some corbles that will fit our mantle. Other then that our fireplace is complete.

Living Room Wood Floor is installed!

Well it took over 6 hours to install the wood floor, but its installed! YAY!! We finished the floor at 4 am this morning, so just about a half hour ago. It looks great!
