Wow!  Where does the time go?  I thought it has been 2, maybe 3 weeks since my last post.  But...yeah, try doubling that.  I would love to say that we were out of contact because we were so busy on the house, but frankly, we were busy with life.  You see, when we started this project we (Phil and I) determined that we wanted to tackle the project as soon as we could, but not at the sake of other things in our lives.  Our faith, our kids and our families are at the top of our priorities list.  And yes, we have an actual list.  Over the last few years, Phil has led our family beautifully into finding more balance in the crazy times (you can read more about his awesome ideas at philklutts.com and builtdadtough.com).  So we have intentionally pushed back and adjusted our deadline.  Life has thrown us some serious curve balls over the last few weeks and we have made adjustments as needed.

But, y'all...things are happening at the condo!  And I don't mean frustrating things.  Those days still come, but now we have more days where we leave and have made progress.  Real. Progress.  The drywall work is almost complete and then we will be ready to paint throughout.  Floors are being installed in the wet areas by our tile crew (me) and soon we will starting putting in cabinetry.  Big things are happening.  It's great!!!!

This weekend I completed the tile in the master bath.  Do you remember what it looked like when we started?

<shudder>

It neither looked nor smelled lovely.  We still need to install the vanity and finish painting the old door, but look at it now.  I hope you enjoy the sneak peak!

The new floors are installed, walls are painted and trim just needs to have a final coat of paint.

Come back soon to see the progress on the upstairs bedrooms and living room!
