Tiling is Almost Complete

We just have a few more small pieces to cut and place on the floor and the walls. It's getting very close!

Trying My Hand at Drywalling

Unfortunately Andrew has been working crazy, silly hours but I am bound and determine to keep making progress on the bathroom. This past weekend I finished the drywall, taped, mudded and laid the cement board for the floor. We have the plumbing complete for double sinks and Andrew did complete the wiring for our heated floor. Yay! I wasn't that excited about the heated floor initially but it will be so worth it in the end.

I taped and finished the walls myself after watching almost all of the videos from drywalling expert Laurier Desormeaux. He's pretty awesome! The true test will be putting on the first coat of primer. Wish me luck!

Visiting Portland!

I drove down to visit Sarah in Portland. She moved into a new two bedroom apartment with a roomate, Kimberly. There place is awesome! There's far more space than her previous studio and now she has a car which should hopefully make life a little easier.

Baby cakes... YUM!

We saw these super cute purses at a random store in downtown Portland.

Also, found this chocolate mustachio :)

Casey Returns!

Casey came up from Sacramento this weekend to visit! She came bearing gifts of girl scout cookies (since she works for the Girl Scouts) and wine. Casey's trip was short but sweet and we made good use of every minute she was here. We'll disregard the fact that her plane was delayed 3 hours Friday night. We spent a night out at Noc Noc and then dancing. We ate Thai food, walked Pike's Market, saw the gum wall for the first time (really gross in person) and spent time catching up. It was a great weekend!
