Late Fall Work/ Thanksgiving

Beautiful porch...all lit up!

Beautiful Porch...(don't worry, the floor is still to be done!)

Putting the marble curb in the shower.

Installing the marble shelf.



Brrr.  A frosty morning in Maine.

Mixing Grout.



A pregnant Heidi (in PJ's!) makes Pumpkin Pie.

Thanksgiving Guests!

Christmas tree search is on...


Found one!













Loading the tree onto my parents' rental car...



There are probably safer ways to secure the Christmas Tree ropes...


Lights!

Ornaments!





Tired workers...

Jobs coming together....


This shower is ready for a beautiful mixing valve!

Gray grout.



A new faucet in the kitchen...much needed.



Our new wood trolley...

So exciting!

Installation of the mixing valve begins.

So pretty!


 
And the valve and shower head are in!  I can't wait to use it!

More floor sanding.




I think this cupboard should be white...don't you?
And....there we have it!
 
The question is whether they should ALL be white...we think no.

New biscuit recipe.



Working on siding into the night...


Good looking porch!
 
A new, better color for the bathroom!  See below for the comparison!

Now if we could do something about those floors...
Old color...yikes!
I was going to put in adhesive tile for a temporary fix, but I decided to paint the subfloor instead as a temporary fix.  The linoleum is up!
Floor is primed with white.  That's a lot of white!
Gray floors!  I love them!

After...
Looking at the before is always fun....
Floor finish looks great!




Brrrrr.







It's too soon for snow!

The marble for the bathroom is in!

And there it is in its new home!
