I Got the Feelin'

Flash back Friday!

Look how far we have come. From what we can work out is maybe a 1970's bathroom, to what we called home for over a year and now. Just the most amazing transformation.

I do have to thank Aaron so much for last week, working 12 hour days and coming home and helping me to put the cornice up, grout and clean the grout from the tiles, all when he really didn't want to.

All the late nights got us in the position to be able to pretty much finish off the bathroom by Sunday.

We were lucky enough to have a public holiday on Wednesday and Aaron finished off most of the electrical.

So all we have left is painting the architraves, door and finishing the LED lights.

I'm sure you all would agree its just beautiful. What an achievement.

We are going to have a few weeks off, Tough Mudder this weekend and then spending time with friends.

Spare room starts in September. Our aim is to finish the house by the end of the year.

Something good

At 11pm on Saturday we had nearly finished tiling, all but 2 little half tiles. We ran out of glue!

So that sucked!

Sunday we finished tiling, hazah! It looks amazing!

Ready for cornice and grout during the week, I'm being hopeful that its all done on Sunday evening.
