feelin' like fall

crunchy leaves to jump and play in
pretty mums for the front steps

sweet pumpkin fudge

crisp, sweet, fresh local apples

soft and fluffy cider donuts

before, after and some in between

the frightening before...

disgusting! i only show you so you can truly appreciate the after with me...

up comes the floor...

down come the walls...


gutted!

a lot of plumbing and "behind the scenes work went on before these walls went up...


and the floor went down...


the tub and the toilet went in...


the shower tile went up...



notice, i have 6 corner shelves-i LOVE them!


the lights and mirror are up and the vanity is in...




and the walls are painted!
we still need to paint and reinstall the trim and install the closet door (which is on order)-a little each weekend...
i'm so thrilled to have my bathroom done.
Thanks to my mom and dad
for putting their lives on hold
so they could "help" (really do it all) us.
