Bathroom remodel

OOOOOOOOOH I am so excited to announce.. drumroll please.. our bathroom has been remodeled! YAY!! Well, the important part anyway--the tub and shower surround. You see, our bathroom has a window right in the middle of the shower. Ingenious idea.. unless you want to reveal yourself to the entire neighborhood and get water inside your walls and grow mold. But these old houses don't know any better.

So we finally got fed up with our mold situation and had our shower remodeled. Once we shopped around and decided on a company (the job was just too big and time consuming for Kurtis, who is an offical student again!) we were told 1-2 days to finish the job.

How it looked during the demo.. and how it sat for a week

Well.. a week, 3 days of actual construction, 2 installers (the first one quit on the job for personal reasons.. I'm not going into it..apparently we're too much to handle), many personal visits and phone calls from the owner and a few extras thrown our way for our 'patience and understanding' later.. it's done! We should have known that contracting jobs are NEVER as easy as they sound and ALWAYS take longer than expected. But no matter.. it's done. It's clean. It's fresh and new. Thank the Lord!

Even Sarah's cuteness doesn't make up for the fact that it's GROSS in there! She does love bubbles though..

TA DA! We put in a curved shower rod and it makes such a difference! It's so spacious. They encased the window in the same acrylic material but we're still putting up a small curtain for privacy and to keep any water from going inside the window itself.

 I feel SOOO much better washing my child (and myself) in this clean tub!

We're so glad that it's done. Yay!!
