Mud and Tape



What a difference a little mud and tape can make. The rest of the pictures can be found here. We have decided that J and A are going to have their own bedrooms. Spoiled kids. I think that that term may as well be spoiled parents! Right now, it is hard to put the kids to bed because they just like to play with each other so much. So now, we will be able to tell if they get out of their bedrooms to play. Ha ha! Take that! Parents 1, kids 0!

Wait a minute, they are going to have their won bedrooms. Hmmmm, parents 1, kids 1. And I wasn't able to have my own bedroom until my older brothers moved out. Kids 2. and they are going to be able to paint it the way that they want - kids 3. And each have huge windows - 4, and ... 5, and ... 6.

But HEY! Who's counting? It is a win-win situation. Everyone is happy!

Cabinets & Tile

The last major projects of our old house are really in the final stages of completion. The tile went on pretty nicely. I have to fix a couple of spots that I missed with the grout and then seal it up and caulk. It looks really nice. And with the cabinets, I have the drawer faces to finish and attach. Other than that, they are done. That is a good feeling to have. Here are a few pictures but I also posted a lot more here.

The drywall is what?

Yup - it is done. At least it is hung. They still have to mud and tape, and for the most part, they did a pretty good job. They did mess up on my wiring a little bit, but I hope that what they did will be salvageable. I will have to post some pictures later on that. But here are a couple of pictures, and as usual, the rest are on my picture site.
