Our first major home renovation was definitely not planned. We came home from my parents' on Christmas day a couple of years ago to spend the night and head to Keith's parents' the next morning, only to find the pile of towels on the bathroom floor soaking wet. Upon further investigation, we found that the carpet in our bedroom was also soaked. Merry Christmas to us:) Needless to say, we did not get to make the trip to Jackson that year. As it turned out, there was some sort of leak under the tub, so we had to remove the tub and all of the tile surrounding it, and Keith and I are not what you'd call handy. We did the demolition all ourselves, and had the new tub and tile put in by a professional. But, during the process, and with the help of my precious mom and our super sweet sisters, we decided that if the rose colored tile was coming out of the tub area, for a fresh clean look, it might as well come off of the vanity too. So one thing led to another, and before long, not only did we have a new tub and tile, but we also had a new sink and vanity, and pretty new paint in the bathroom and bedroom. Oh yeah, because the water made its way into the bedroom, we had to take everything out of there and take out the carpet to let it dry, and if you have to take everything out of a room, you might as well paint! Let me tell you, that was one crazy week that we will not forget! Redoing your bathroom is tough when you just have one, thankfully our sisters let us shower at their houses. We made lots of new friends at Lowe's and ended up loving our bathroom and bedroom!

Hope you've enjoyed touring our first home. We're still hoping the right people will come along and want to make it their home.
