Almost there little Apartment

We have made some progress the last 2 weeks on the apartment.

 I swear(!)it will be done soon. 

Fingers crossed and many construction prayers offered over here. 

We need to rip up the inside of the Milkbarn pronto.

This is a stud finder.

I mean, that joke just wrote itself.

I digress.

Okay! Moving on.

The new septic tank was installed. Sullivan Septic  did the install. Honestly, the nicest guys to have around. 

They all kept me company and made sure the kids were feeling better.

Um, having no ability to flush a toilet when kids have a rotovirus?

Miracle #39- noone needed the bathroom for most of that day! 

Apartment bathroom in progress. 

Had to do bead board!

Clay and Audrey did the tiling.

 Cool herringbone placement with just an in stock Lowes tile.

Taped off and painting!

My friend keeps telling me; paint is a good sign.

True true! 

After debating what the heck to do with the bedroom in the apartment (the previous owner glued sound proof tiles to the ceiling and we couldn't get them off), last Thursday night I heard a ruckus to find Clay had torn the whole thing out.

So now, the re-dry walling begins.

It's official: Clay owns any and every tool necessary to build anything. 

Even an ark.

 I walked in and was like...does this belong on a sail boat?

This, my friends, is a Dry Wall Hoist.

After we dry walled the room we needed to insulate the ceiling. 

The insulating dream team here.

The shredded paper insulation is cut open and put into that tub below where a hose shoots it out to where you need it.

The last few weeks have been super busy.

Lucy was in 3 acts of the school talent show. It was awesome.

Henry's "C" plane from his Science Fair project;

 Which Paper Airplane goes the farthest? 

It was C. See?  

Audrey decided to wear homework heels while doing Math.

And I randomly modeled for Audrey in my church outfit...which made me curious to start an IG account of my 

weekend clothes worn at the Milkbarn. 

But then, that would be paint stained yoga paints and face masks. Please reply if you dare me too.

And then I found this. 

Hey there Clay Clay.

Next time- Completion photos of the apartment and 

a top 10 list of what not to do in a remodeling project!

And maybe in the near future...what happened to our pigs?
