Before pictures of the bathroom...

We officially closed on our house on April 24th (the weekend Megan (plus 1) and Bob came in to town).  We plan on moving on May 23rd.  We have been busy painting the kitchen and hall, and picking out tile for the downstairs bathroom and back-splash in the kitchen.  Changing the colors and adding detail here and there makes the house truly feel like ours, unique in its own way. I have forgotten to take a camera the past two times we have gone to work on the house, but I promise to post some pics soon!!!  I want to take some before and after shots of our bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen, before Gelu comes to work on the house.  Thanks to everyone who has helped out so far!! Mitch did a great job vacuuming, putting up painters tape and mowing our front yard.  Margaret cleaned the window panes and they look brand new!!!  Mom and I put some elbow grease into the cabinets and they look pristine....almost...(Mrs. Brumleve must have burned a lot of candles or used her fireplace because it was almost as if black smudge marks we all over the white cabinets).  Mom also mopped the entire upstairs..what a job! Dad helped put up a fan in the kitchen,  Grampies cleaned our furnace, Grannie cleaned out the refrigerator and all of the handles in the kitchen, and Grannie and Grampies both cleaned the AC unit...it looks so much better now!!! 

Thank you all so much!!

Also, thank you to Gary for helping us find a contractor and designing our bathroom and closet.

We are looking foward to moving day:)
