Getting Closer

We are getting there. We now have tile.....but...well, I'll save that story for the end of this blog. This pic shows all the grout we had on there. Since the tile job is being done for free....we got to clean off the grout ourselves. The guy doing the tile said to let the grout dry before removing it...so we went out to eat and saw this beautiful sunset on our way there.

And then it started....removing the dried on concrete....I mean, grout.....It was a family project. Kaleb has a tool in hand and Klara is doing the sibling thing and pushing her brother (hehe). Later we brought out the vacuum and both kids got to help suck it all up.


This is the result. Clif did the grout and did a great job....even the tile guy said so when he came by. The install guys came by to do the piping....boo hoo....not enough tile in the front for code. We only need another 12" tile in the front.....so a call to the tile guy and he will fix it this next week. Another appt with the install guys is set for Thursday. Oh, and did you notice the orange extension cord in the pic??? That's for the tv. The plug still needs to be re-hooked up for the "circuit" to work again and then the tv will work without the extension cord. Hopefully that problem will be fixed this weekend.
