It is time to paint! Trese choose and I approved Apple 2 for our bedrooms as our base color! It is a very nice color. It really makes the rooms feel like home. Good choice Treser. Trese is going to finish painting the rest of the upstairs Next week.
Primers done...Wow my posts are getting boring.
Dad really helped us out by finish mudding. He is very good at it. A pro. He says that he can do a good job it just takes him forever! We let him mud while we do other things. Thanks pops. Ready for primer.
UPS has shipped our fixtures for the upstairs bath to us! Most of our trims we purchased online at http://www.moendepot.com/ . We went with oil rubbed bronze and the kingsley collection for almost everything! Tell us what you think. The stuff is a little spendy but it is good stuff! Should last tell we are ready to gut the house again. :)
We recommend moen depot for purchasing fixtures! Quick service and a great selection. We tried the locals but they said 4 weeks out and few dollars more!

Recently we finished the plumbing for the upstairs bathroom and the rough plumbing for all thre rest of the bathrooms in the house. The place is ready for drywall and hardibacker.
Yeah thats right we found 3 little leaks when we tested the drain system. They all were due to the absence of glue. I forgot glue on a pipe right over the main beam of our basement.
To test the pipes I filled the entire system up with water (3 floors worth) and proceeded to look around for drips. One was dripping from the beam. Dad and I got up on ladders to get a closer look.
I pushed up on the elbow so that I could get my hand under and feel if the leak was coming from there when a huge stream of water knocked us both off our ladders. Found the leak. I had forgotten to glue the joint.
This was in late January early February so our basement was approx. 28 degrees F.
You can see by the look on dads face that he was finished, through, done, ready to leave at that instant. We took some pictures and left.
