Full Speed Ahead - The 'rents take over!

It's been awhile since we've updated the post - we've been busy! The main floors were refinished so they have a matte finish and no longer look like a skating rink. We tiled the laundry room with beautiful and inexpensive tile from Home Depot. Next we decided to switch out our garden tub for a jacuzzi. Mom and dad came to town for 2.5 weeks and fast-forwarded our home improvement projects by 6 months. I would leave for work and come home to find another room tiled, all the blinds cleaned, and another project completed. Too awesome! The spare bathroom is tiled, the master bath is tiled (including toilet room, shower, walk-in closet, and jacuzzi), the fireplace is complete, ceiling fans/lights installed in all bedrooms, fans installed in both bathrooms, spotlights installed in family rm for fireplace, lights installed in garage. Here are the pics:

A big thanks to mom and dad for helping us! Everyone should have a bricklayer as a father!
