Oohh Lala it's water!

Signs of Spring are continuing to pop up! The past three days have been warmer here and Shea is taking full advantage of this and being outside more. On Saturday, the temps were 70 with a strong March breeze but it felt good!! The kids and I walked up to our lodge here at Choctaw Lake. It was the annual Spring Craft Show. We went for the sole purpose of seeing the Easter Bunny, Shea was so excited! Both kids did get their picture taken with him and it turned out pretty good.

DIVA!

While we were off doing that, Shawn had run into London to get a part for our garbage disposal. He needed this to finish the plumbing on the sink and then I could get running water!!!! Well, not so fast! They don't make a part for this disposal and by the time he did find a place that carried it, he could have just bought a new one. Into Columbus he went to Home Depot. He came home with a new garbage disposal, so pretty. After this little set back he was ready to install it and finish plumbing. The lines were all ran to the refrigerator and there seemed to be NO leaks!!! It makes ice and water comes out just fine, wheww... Now he can put the dishwasher in it's place.

The dishwasher went in and it took a while for the two of us to get it set. Poor Shawn is now fighting this cold/virus that the kids and I have had. On top of not feeling well he had to do this work. More fitting into tight spaces to drill holes and run plumbing. But...Look how great it turned out!

TA DA!!

The sink, faucet and dishwasher are in and WORKING! I HAVE RUNNING WATER!! That's right, my bathroom is back to just being a bathroom and not a make-shift kitchen when needed. We still have to take the handle off of the dishwasher and paint it black but those types of small things will come last.



I just love the faucet. It pulls out, instead of having a separate spray hose. Next to the faucet is this cool soap dispenser. Love it! The only flaw of the sink and faucet is that I am constantly wiping up water spots. It looks so pretty when all clean and shiny.

Shawn also aligned the cabinet drawers. Sunday evening I filled up the bottom cabinets and the drawers. Lots of totes were emptied! That felt so good. I just love having everything in this beautiful kitchen all in and working. Thanks Shawn!!!

Before Shea's birthday party we'd (mostly me) like to get the back splashes on, storage cabinet in place and the lighting fixtures up. The island and then trim will be what is left. That seems like nothing compared to what has already been done. Come on over if you're in the area and have a bite!
