We had some great times over the Christmas holidays this year. We spent the weekend before Christmas in Houston with my family and headed back home on Christmas Eve to meet the Padgham's who spent the rest of the holidays with us. Of course, we just can't have the Padgham's visit us without giving them a project and wouldn't you know it, the week before Christmas our bathroom decided (all on it's own) that it needed a complete renovation! We were planning on doing that renovation at some point in the future but not this soon. But as luck would have it, the floor finally gave in causing the toilet to leak and, well...just see pictures below for further information. We'll start with Christmas pictures, though...
Houston pics (unfortunately, we hardly got any Houston pics) :(...
Pics at home in Dallas...
And the bathroom demolition and construction. Since this is our one and only bathroom, we had to rent a port-o-potty (kept in the backyard) and a hotel room for showers. Padg and Bruce got a ton of stuff done over the holidays, but now Padg is back to work so we'll have to finish the rest during the weekends. We've still got electrical, a window installation, floor tile, bath tile, drywall, wainscotting, and medicine cabinets to do. We'll be lucky if we get done by this summer. ;)
Topher started walking on January 1st! He's still in that "drunk-walking" phase, but he's getting stronger and better balance every day. It's so fun to watch him...
