Remodeling Again?!?!

So it seems that we are starting a new tradtion around the home on South Custer...for those of you that remember, Dustin and I completely remodeled the living room, dining room, and hallway year before last Thanksgiving. Dustin has taken Christmas Eve until January 4th off this year to watch the boys...but in doing so, he has also decided to remodel our half bath off our bedroom. What started out as a "Let's just add a corner shower" has turned into "if we're going to do it then we might as well do it all".

In order to install this shower unit, we are losing about 80% of our closet, not to worry, I have always hung most of our clothes up downstairs in the laundry room anyway.

I will post pictures as the work progresses...here's what's happened so far:






- - Merry Christmas to All - -

Wishing all a belated Merry Christmas!!

As always we followed tradition - allowing the boys to open one present on the night of Christmas Eve. Tyler and Austin picked out what they knew were Transformers (because of the shape of pkg) and Owen - well to say the least he was quite disappointed about picking out a present with three books in it. But rest assured, he went to bed dreaming of all the toys he was going to get the next day...

Mother Nature had a present of her own also...maybe it was Old Man Winter? Who knows? but we received about 2-3 inches of powder beginning Christmas Eve into Christmas day. Definetly a white christmas for those in Kakeland - - but why the winds with 50+ gusts??

Another tradition that was followed this Christmas was Bert's (Dustin's mom) family favorite, Speghetti! With all the fixins'. We were all stuffed and ready for a nap but the boys insisted that we open our presents - imagine that!!
