Tiling up a storm

If you are wondering why it's storming out, I think it's because we have been tiling up a storm on Blackbush Line! WHOO HOO.... here is picture of the tub wall. We actually have almost the entire floor down too... however, we need about 20 more tiles to finish... how sad is that! We seem to have picked a hard to find tile. Chris has been to every Rona from London to Kitchener to Toronto in search of more. We can get more of the same kind, but they are different dye lot and seem to be considerably more green than the ones we already have. Tomorrow he is headed to Montreal, and I'm quite certain he will be scouring every Rona he can find in search of tile. I'll let you know how he makes out. All of the tile will be finished with Mocha coloured grout... very sexy and virtually stain-proof... or atleast I hope so!

Happy Birthday Ezekial

Last Friday, Feb 16th was Ezekial's Birthday. Here is a shot of the kids skating outside/inside. Ron & Susan have a coverall building that they make into an arena every winter. It was great fun Thanks!

Decisions, Decisions!

I have the bathroom primed! For those of you who are too curious to wait for the final pictures, here are some colours for you to look at. First is the counter top, then the wall colour, and then the ceiling/trim colour. The actual vanity is a very dark stain on oak. Hopefully this weekend Chris can start tiling. I'll keep you posted.

Too cute not to mention....

I love the little bits of freedom I am gaining as my kids get older... but it sure is bitter sweet. Little boys can be so tender hearted. I hope they never out grow it. Warren often has questions about where I will be when he grows up. He seems quite worried about it at times. Two nights ago he was asking, "When I am a father, will you be dead?"... I assured him that when he is a father I will be a Grandma and it will all be swell. He seemed comforted by me being a grandma. Tonight at bedtime Victor was VERY VERY VERY tired, and suddenly burst into tears. I asked him what was wrong and his answer was "I don't want to get big, I just want to stay little." I couldn't agree with him more. If I could freeze him right where he is now, I think I would... except maybe at church :)
