Saturday morning we loaded up the zoo and headed to the Weld House. Bud decided the reason he was given a bath was so he could drive around town and hollar at some cuties. He was happy when he noticed that Jason left the keys in the ignition! Luckily I caught him before he drove off. That face is not as innocent as it looks.
Daisy decided she didn't like being clean so rolled in the dirt. Her mom disagreed so washed her off again. The look of defeat.
And Lola cooperated just perfectly...after we finally caught her twice and eventually enticed her out from under the truck. Why all the sparkling dogs? It was the annual vaccination day at the City Hall.
While the Welding Wife was washing, Jason mixed the mortar for the shower floor.
First, we laid out a few rows.
Then they were put in place on top of the mortar.
Filling in between the pebbles with more mortar.
Wiping off the excess...until Jason took over. For some reason I thought standing on top of the pebbles was a good idea. Jason didn't agree. I couldn't blame it on not being able to reach. I have monkey arms. So I just shut up and got out of the way and supervised.
Time to let it dry before buffing and sealing it.
Dad worked on the plumbing for the bathtub while we were working on the shower.
I helped by making sure the placement would allow the water to make it into the tub. I am in charge of double checking :)
Drilling the holes
Bud did some supervising too.
Connecting and hooking up the pipes.
And this is how it looks.
Shower and tub both ready for marble.
After lunch it was shot time. Bud still wanted to drive but left his license at home.
After "the wild group" made it back, it was nap time. (Look, you can see all three.)
I cleaned up the mortar mess.
Mom continued working on the medicine cabinet for the kids' bathroom.
And Jason decided he was tired of building a house so built a table instead.
After that was out of his system, he decided to get back to building the house.
The guys practiced using our new hinge guide. The guide is attached to the doors and door frames and then a router is used to make the indention for the hinges.
Moments later it was time for the real deal.
The first door was a little tricky. I had to be the motivational speaker and let the guys know that the first one always takes way longer than the rest no matter the project.
Things fit a tad too tight at first.
But after a little adjusting and experimenting (and lots of motivating),
Things were looking much better.
And now I present you, the master bedroom door! And the...
Medicine Cabinet!
