The big reveal!!

So when we moved into this house, the basement bathroom left much to be desired. 


This is what it looked like when we first looked at this house (notice the gross shower surround..ick)



The ugly and outdated vanity and sink...not to mention the nasty floor



The ugly and outdated vanity and sink AND mirror cabinet AND light fixture



More of the nasty floor



This is what Jordan and Jaicee had to live with that summer that they lived here...sorry guys!

So we decided to fix it up...after all, it couldn't be too hard right?  It is tiny, and we wouldn't need very many supplies.  Sounded pretty easy.  Of course, we had never done anything like this before...ever. 

So we got started.  

 It ended up being way more disgusting than originally thought, and way more work.



 
 But it was fun!  At least I had fun.



Turns out that things are much harder when you don't have the right tools.  And turns out that tools are pretty darn expensive.  But it's okay, because now we have the right tools...for next time!  Like when we do the kitchen and our bedroom and such.  

Anyway, after way more money than we thought, and way more time than we anticipated, we finished. 


We replaced EVERYTHING except the bathtub itself.   

 

 Notice the cute little one modeling how to use the cabinet! 




And we LOVE it!!!
