Our NEW Bathroom!! :-)

We LOVE how it came out!!  :-)  We got a lot of the décor  (including the curved shower curtain rod, towel, shower curtain, rug, trash can, tissue box cover, soap dispensers, etc.) as wedding presents (thanks to our teacher friends, my aunt and uncle, and our sister-in-law and niece) from our registry at Bed, Bath, and Beyond.  We put down red oak hardwood floor and subway tile from Lowe's.  We updated the knobs and handles as well.  The showerhead, faucets, all towel rods, toilet handle, toilet paper dispenser, etc. were all Pegasus brand (in oil-rubbed bronze) from Lowe's. All trim (crown molding, baseboard, shoe kick, door trim, corner trim between the tile and sheetrock, etc.) also came from Lowe's. 
 
Yesterday I scrubbed the sink, toilet and shower/tub.  They had all been sitting through a construction zone as the bathroom was being worked on and they were pretty dirty from that.  It took a lot of elbow grease, but they all look great! 
 
I still haven't put anything up on the walls,
but I will be soon.

We are beyond happy with the results...
here are the pictures!

Super productive!

Between working in my classroom for part of the day and working around the house... I was going strong for 14 hours.  I had lunch with one of my teacher friends and made dinner for my husband and his brother, but besides that I was a super worker.  At school I cleaned out my filing cabinets.  My goal tomorrow or Friday there is to organize my papers into more specific files and organize my closets too. :-)  More to come.  I am very much looking forward to a very productive summer!  Yard sales tomorrow morning with Emily! :-) YAY!
