Bathroom Update- July 27

I wasn't going to post an update until next week, but I'm excited that we're running about 1-2 weeks ahead (that's a first!)

Tile supplies are ready, and we've begun laying out the first part on the floor in the hall.





This weekend we hope to finish up the spackling and start the tiling!  We gave ourselves until 8/12 to get that done, which still might be accurate- since we've never tiled before.

*please excuse the poor photos-
I just snapped a few quick pics with my phone!
