Are you ever really done?

Here are the pics from the recently renovated bathroom. Wow, I'm so glad this one is over! Being that it is our only bathroom, AND that we are a family of 5, AND that on any given day I have around 7 preschoolers running around the house, it sure was nice to have a toilet and running water again. It makes me rethink my desire to be Laura from Little House on the Prairie! Not as easy as it looks!!! So the reno is done and I think the results are fantastic considering we did 90% of the work ourselves. We had some drywall challenges and a couple of days where the electrical was a little screwed up but "all in all" I couldn't be happier. We are taking a little break (probably until September) and then we'll begin the finishing work (the rough in is already done) for the new downstairs bath. I'll keep yah posted! So here are the pics...........

New drywall



The "result".....isn't it great?


Worth the wait!
