A Newfound Appreciation: A Toilet and Shower

When we moved in, the toilet and shower had not yet been installed. Rob had managed to install the tiles - they are tiles that look like wood - in the toilet room prior to the Thanksgiving craziness, and he installed the toilet a few days after we moved in.

I was pretty excited to finally have a toilet! Doesn't it look like a throne?
Here's the room with the sink installed

We had our first snow of the season....

And decided to start wearing our Klompen

Rob then began work on the shower...

Rob is applying Thinset to the walls which is an adhesive-based cement that holds the tiles in place

The green spacers keep the tiles evenly spaced


Here Rob is installing the floor heater before he put in the floor tiles

Installing the shower

I had my first shower on Christmas Eve!

Rob worked until midnight the night before he left for Holland to get the sink installed.





Here's what the house looks like right now....




And finally some awesome deer pics in the snow....

Happy New Year!
