House

It's hard to believe that we have lived in our house for 3 1/2 years now.  We liked it when we bought it, but with the changes we have made over the last 3 1/2 years we now LOVE IT!!  The most recent change we made was to completely remodel our little bathroom.  2 years ago we had a contractor remodel our big one, so we decided this time we would do it ourselves.  I must say I'm pretty proud of the work I completed.  It only took me 4 weeks from start to finish and I only had help on a few things.  So really I remodeled our bathroom. :) I pretty much gutted the bathroom.  I took two walls down to studs and the floor down to the subfloor.  Here are some pics:

Before of the sink and tile:
The toilet seat!  Wasn't she a beauty?  We still have her if anybody wants it!
The walls stripped down to the studs. :)
The floor down to the original subfloor. 

The new vanity.  I love the surfboard rug! And you can see the floor I tiled myself! (Now I was not able to take up the floor myself, Ry had to help with that. It took him an hour to remove because it was 3/4 in. plywood that was nailed every 4-6 inches. Thanks Ry!!)

The new shower.  I tiled it myself. :)  My dad helped me hang the cement backerboard (behind the tile) and the shower door.  Thanks Dad!!

I added the paneling to the walls and installed a new toilet. 
It's hard to believe that I did that mostly on my own.  Now you can see why I'm proud of it and why I keep telling people. :)
