Holy Crap, we got another room DONE!!!

This week was a great week for us.  We finally finished another room...the bathroom.  After discovering that the tub didn't need to be replaced, it was just dirty, we bought a new vanity, sink, faucet and mirror.  We removed the wallpaper and repainted.  We also installed a brushed nickel curved shower curtain rod.  Now for the before and after pictures.

 During

 We found a toy canoe under the old vanity.

 Mike installing the new sink...at 1am.

 We moved the canoe to be hidden behind the mirror.

 Looking into the bathroom.

 Vase with curly sticks...to hide a missing piece of molding.

 Toilet, we replaced the heating duct next to it.

 The new sink.

The sink and mirror.

 Shower with a new rod and Mike's shower curtain.

We also worked on ripping out the sub-flooring and many layers of linoleum in the kitchen.  I sanded and plastered the ceiling and walls in the kitchen.  The plastering is a ton of work, but the kitchen will look great when we're done.  Oh yeah, we had to shovel, a lot.

 Mike working hard removing the floor.

 Me, covered in plaster dust.

 It's not a fun job...

 Plastering, not the master that my father is.

 The kitchen floor stripped down.

 Callie, sitting in the middle of the mess.  I guess she's trying to help.

 The ceiling is almost done.

 We had to scrape the walls and fix the plaster in another corner of the kitchen.

 All the cabinets are gone.  The brown stuff is glue from the backsplash.

All our snow...and the garage.
