Our first remodeling project

So we've painted a few walls in our married years, but that's about it in the way of home remodeling or home improvement. Over the past few weeks we've taken on a cooler task - updating the bathrooms with new counter tops, sinks and faucets. Plus, our master bath is no longer purple. I actually did nothing other than pick things out, but our (almost) brother in law John did the plumbing, his friend installed and cut the counter tops, and Barclay and his dad painted, caulked and patched some wood today. So we really owe a lot to John and Peter - the handy members of the family. Now it's all done except for one faucet we had to send back b/c a piece was broken. We put vessels and waterfall faucets in our master bath. It also got painted "Lighthouse Shadow" - ha! I just love paint names. The two smaller bathrooms got under-mount sinks and 3 piece faucets (rather than the ones that combine the handle with the faucet).

While Barclay was out this morning buying the paint and other supplies, I drug out the halloween costumes to see if Lily would be interested in playing with them. Not so much. Lily was afraid of every costume (even the frog) and wanted nothing to do with putting them on. We don't even have one scary costumes b/c they're all in baby and toddler sizes. So while I'd like to provide you with a picture of Lily the tiger and Addy the dragon, you'll only get to see Addy the dragon..Lily calls her "baby dragon".
