Dog Blog

We got ourselves a dog, its a long story (basically he was adopted by our neighbor for a week who then decided, she was going to send him back to the adoption agency because she cant handle a dog in her life right now. So... we took him). His name is Oliver he is a 3 month old Lab/Golden Retriever mix.

Insulation and Beyond

A lot has happened since we last posted. We are now fully insulated, drywalled and about halfway "mudded". The cabinets are ordered too.

Just a note to our faithful blog readers: We reopened the comments section for anyone to read because we love to see your encouraging and funny comments. Recently, there has been some spam/virus activity on blogs. If you're reading the comments and it asks you to click on a link, don't do it unless you know the person who wrote the comment.
Now on to the main event:This faucet works! We can not use any toilets (because we don't have any), but we can make mud.

This tub is in the second/common bathroom in the second story. Behind it is the laundry room.

This is the new stack (for our non-existant toilets) and our water pipes (in the stylish red and blue). We used PEX instead of copper piping.
