The Big Reveal

We finally got our new bathroom.  When we first looked at this house over six years ago, we knew the master bathroom was horrid.  We figured we would redo it one day, but it just never rose to the top of the list since we knew it would be costly and inconvenient.  Thankfully, we now get to enjoy a nice, new bathroom in which Keith and I can be in at the same time.  Keith and I were talking and we realized neither of us had ever had a nice bathroom our whole life.  Oh, sure, we had better than an outhouse and all of our bathrooms were functional, but none of them were nice.

In Louisiana, our first house was a shack home, built off the ground and very primitive.  We were newlyweds and didn't really notice.  Our next two homes in Louisiana had very old, small and outdated bathrooms.  But upon moving here, we went into an ever smaller bathroom (5' x 8') and constructed with junk fixtures.  Keith wanted to just change out the fixtures and flooring, but, well, I am too much of a visionary for that.  I kept telling him we needed to wait until we could afford to do it right and make it bigger!

We demolished the wall that separated the bathroom and our closet.  Now we had  8' x 11' of space!  Keith has a good relationship with a contractor and in less than two weeks, we had a finished bathroom.   It was loud and messy and cramped for those two weeks, but so worth it!   I still would like to get some wall art and a few other items, but I can wait for those things.  It feels so great to have my own sink!!

I wasn't going to post the before pictures because I am so embarrassed of it, but I guess it does have more meaning if you can see the whole story.  I praise God for a job done ON BUDGET!!!

Ya'll have a blessed day!
