Nothing Comes Without A Price

FINALLY! I thought this day would never come...

Wes finished our master bath. The new vanity looks great. He did pretty good picking out the wood and style. He was so excited!

All that's left to do before we put the house on the market is touch up the paint where the kids beat the walls with bats when we leave and clean the carpets.

ALAS! It was not to be that easy...

This is the family room ceiling a week later. I couldn't bear to take a picture of the leaking pipes and sagging dry wall. Poor Wes, he's done such a great job remodeling the entire house. The last project would be the disaster. He was so frustrated that he actually threw in the towel and called the plumber to find the leak. (When Wes was securing the vanity to the wall. The screw broke and made a direct hit to the line. He didn't realize it at the time. We won't say any more about the pipe layout that he has and what went wrong.)

He's planning to finish the repair to the ceiling this weekend. I'm sure you'll never be able to tell when he's done. He's done remarkable work with the rest of the house. Oh, and by the way...

We met with the builder at the lot to mark where the house will sit. Monday is the BIG digging day! I'm so excited, I can't hardly stand it!
