Bathroom Update- 8/15/12

Moving right along in the bathroom... 
In Progress
This past week the grouting has been completed, we've installed the shower fixtures, started installing the wainscoting and moldings, and started installing the wood floor.  

Speaking of the wood floor- we totally lucked out this past weekend.  Realizing we were going to need one more box of flooring, we headed to Lowe's to order it.  We were kind of bummed since this would slow us down (last time it took about a week to come in).  
However, when we got there, one box was in stock- and to top it off, it was marked down $15 because it was a return!!!  Woo-Hoo!



This is my favorite view- very white since we haven't painted the walls yet... but if you squint, it could look almost done!
