Getting Closer!!
This weekend Kaleb & I "taped & mudded" the walls. Basically, you have to put "mud" over all the nails in the sheetrock. And then on every "seem" on the sheetrock, you have to put down mud, put the tape on (which is not sticky at all by the way--is that not the definition of TAPE??!!), and then you mud over that again. We also finally moved everything that was going into our storage shed. It was a very long & trying day! The ceiling is about 1/3 done. We ordered our carpet which will be installed next week! Just in time for Thanksgiving :)
This was the first wall we started with....it was a painful learning curve the first 1/2 of the day. You can see where we have part of the ceiling done too.....
We asked Jack to take a picture of us to commemerate the day :) The camera was really heavy for him and it didn't look like he was pointing it at us, so we scrunched down like this! You can see how messy we were!!!!
At the end of a very long day, cleaning up....
The boys watching Kung Fu Panda :) They were so cute wrapped up in their blankets & pillows :)
