As it turns out, when you decide to do a massive flooring project, it opens the door to a myriad of other prospective projects. You find yourself saying things like, "Well, while we have the toilet out, it only makes sense to..." or "We might as well re-do this, too, so it doesn't look outdated...", etc. So, Phase 3 is really just all the "extras" that go along with it! ;)
While my mom, Jen, and I worked on painting the baseboards, the kids were the best babysitters ever! Libby got to go to the park on numerous occasions and loved getting to spend time with her cousins.
Once the baseboards were painted and the floor was set, it was time to replace them. My mom became the expert caulker - she was a champ!
My dad got to whip out his nail gun for the project and had a hay-day. He said this was definitely the BEST part!
And, while the toilet and sink are out, why not repaint the bathroom?!? We chose a green-grey color that I think turned out GREAT!
Jen was a fantastic painter, and master of the touch-up brush. She even matched the scene. Again, thank you to EVERYONE who made it all possible! We can't thank you enough!
