New Bathroom

Before
After





We finally finished the main bathroom. It looks awesome. We did the same tile we did in the master bath and painted the cabinet and did bead board. We painted the walls blue, as you can see. We are very pleased with the way it turned out. Mike, once again, did an amazing job.

WOW

PS: this is not our house. I just found this picture on the internet so I could show what it would be like if we were negligent.

This morning started out to be just like every other morning, I woke up and walked out to the kitchen for my breakfast. I greatly look forward to breakfast in the morning, I am always starving when I wake up from a good nights rest. I walked out into our kitchen and I was startled by some scratching noises. I just figured it had to be a mouse so I text my wonderful husband and told him we had a mouse in the house. I continued about my morning and ate my breakfast and took a shower. Once I got out of the shower I, once again, was startled by more scratching noises, only this time it was accompanied by some squeeking. This is when I, once again, text my husband and told him it was not a mouse it was a raccoon in the dryer vent. He replyed to my text and said "are you sure?? I bet it is a bird. you should go outside and see if you can see anything in the vent" But no it sure sounded like a raccoon. I quickly got ready and went outside. Now I was certain that I was going to walk around to the side of my house and would find a stripped raccoon tail swinging from the wall. I quickly called my husband as I walked outside and there was nothing. I could not see a thing. I was so disturbed. And then out flies a big black bird. I started jumping up and down and screaming like a little girl. Not one of my finer moments. My husband was just hysterical with laughter on the other end of the phone. He then said to me, "go inside and get a broom and hit the vent so it will come out." Oh no!! not a chance Whitney is going anywhere near that vent! That thing was loud! and i mean loud when it was in that vent. It sounded like an aviary when that thing was in the vent. You could hear it through the entire house. I had to go outside cause I could not handle listening to it in the house. So of course, him being the wonderful man that he his, my husband came to my rescue. He came home and got the bird out and fixed the vent so that it would not happen any more. My hero! The bird was flying in and out of the vent building it's nest so it could lay it's eggs in there. What a morning!

Break

St George

We took a little trip down to St George over the weekend. It was nice to get a little break from tiling and painting bathrooms. We mostly just hung out and relaxed. My family was down there for Tanner's baseball tournament but by the time we got down there it was over. Kenzy and my Dad ran a marathon. They did 7 miles in like 50 minutes! They are amazing! Saturday we went hiking on the red rocks and had a blast!
