We have been working day after day at the house and the progress is becoming a little more evident than it has been in the past.
Progress in the Bathroom
This photo shows the beautiful job done by the reglazing that was done last week (doesn’t that look great?) and the newly-laid porcelain tile that Derek and I put down a week ago. Rosie did the grout, and it looks wonderful. Thanks Rosie and Derek! I have since been working on the drain in the tub which has been a real challenge but I should have this back in place this week along with new faucet washers and seats for the controls. We also hope to get painting done in the bathrooms (we already have the paint) and purchase a new toilet, and then hopefully we should be in a position to move back in while we get the rest of the house done. There is more work to do in the office and basement, but we are ready to get back in after being displaced for over two months. Grandma Hill has been very accomodating with us (thank you!) but we believe she is also ready to have us back in our own home.
We look forward to the blessing of our newest grandchild, Daphne Helen Green this weekend, and then after Labor Day Melodie will return to BYU-Idaho for school. We will miss her! Mom and I would like to find a day for a mini-trip to some location with the girls before school starts again but don’t know if we will be able to or not.
