A whole bunch of stuff.

So I am not too good at this "blogging" apparently. I cant seem to get these posts about the house renovation together. Although, it may have more to do with the fact that all of my pictures are horribly unorganized. Its such a mess there is absolutely no rhyme or reason to it. The thought trying to sort through them and organize everything makes me cringe. SOOOO I put it off again and again and add more and more pictures to the mess. SIGH.
So yesterday was mothers day. I am not a mother, but I do have a wonderful mother, and I enjoyed celebrating her. I made this frangelico cake that I found on Edie's page. HOLEY MOLEY! This was probably the best cake I have ever eaten, my mom praised it, and even Sam who isn't the biggest sweet eater said "Babe this is the best cake you have ever made" with a mouth full of cake mind you. I am glad I let mom take it home because I may have eaten the whole thing without help. It really wasn't hard to make at all either!

Tonight is my Wedding Cake appointment @ Ms. Laura's Cakes. I am super excited to taste the cakes and pick something out!!!
Oh and also, I decided to redo out living room, I had to get all new furniture and paint it. I did it all for about 300.00, that includes paint, all the furniture, and accessories. I cant wait to show you!!! Its almost done!

Absence

I haven't been here in a while because there has been so much going on, all good!! Wedding planning, work {okay well that part isn't good}, Jackson's 1st Birthday Party, and spending time with my Sam because he is HOME!!! So anyway, I plan to get back into my normal routine soon, which would include picking up where I left on on my House posts. I think that Sam and I are going to try and do a little work this weekend so we will see how it goes! See ya soon! :)

The Bathroom

Ok well I started going through the renovation pictures, and there were so many I thought this would be better split up into several smaller posts. So..... here is the bathroom transformation!!!

After we ripped out EVERYTHING (see why here) we were left with this.
That is my wonderful, and very helpful mom


Next we had to have a meeting of the minds to figure out how to get this bathtub in.

After alot of staring....
grunting....


pushing......

shoving......and perhaps even a few choice words....we ended up cutting the drywall out!! HA!and finally I could relax... lol except all I did was take pictures! ;)
Then my expert floor layer, who happens to be my sister, got to work!!

lookin' better!!

Vanity and toilet in!


paint and final touches!!!

And DONE!!!!

OK well its not exactly done....this is what it looks like today, but it still isn't trimmed out. I watch all those home improvement shows and wonder how people can live with all those small unfinished projects?!? I would think to myself, "doesn't that annoy them?" Well now I know, it sure does annoy you, but after going through this mess its hard to get those last few things done!!! We will get them done, just not sure when!!!!

Hope you enjoyed!!! The kitchen is up next!
