New bathroom!

While the kids were in Kansas at Grand Camp, Curtis and I did a lot of work in the hall bathroom, which is the kids' bathroom. Our goal is to do a few projects over the next few months and slowly prepare our house to be put on the market. After much prayer and even more patience, we feel that College Station is our home for now, and Curtis will be continuing in his same job. And while our current home has met our needs for the past several years, we are rapidly reaching maxim capacity.

So the first renovation we did was the bathroom!We installed a new light fixture.
Curtis pulled up not one, but two layers of linoleum flooring and laid tile. We also texturized the walls and painted and painted the base boards and the ceiling.
We were able to borrow the shower curtain from my mom/sister.

The cost for the entire bathroom make over was about $150. We were able to save a lot of money by using the extra tile that we had from tiling the kitchen.

We're looking forward to doing several more projects, and are very pleased with how well our first one went!
