The first weekend in March, Caleb's parents came out for a visit and helped completely redo our bathroom. It is something we have really been wanting to do but have always been afraid of starting because it is the only bathroom in the house. Tearing it apart meant going without a shower and/or toilet for several hours or days. But we finally took the leap. Caleb started tearing the old tile and fixtures out during the week before.We were fortunate to have the help of a couple of people in the ward.
Once all the tile was off the walls, it was time to put up new drywall, put in the tub, and find a way to get the new tub surround up the stairs (after 6+ tries it finally made it). We spent a couple nights in a hotel so we would have a toilet and showers. By the time they headed back to KC, we had a functional shower, the tile floor was in, and a working toilet. Over the following week, we grouted the tile, put in the new vanity and sink, the new mirror, and a new light. There are just a few final details to finish up. The bathroom looks great, a thousand times better than before.






Looks great! Thanks for posting the pics, I loved to see how things turned out.
