Game Ball & More Projects

Last Thursday, Bud had a late baseball game. His main coach was out of town so the assistant coach pitched again. To put it nicely, they lost their second game. They've only lost their first one and now this one. Both times he pitched. I just think he pitches too high and too fast, but what do I know? Anyway, the coaches have a thing where they give the game ball to the best player of the night. Well, guess what?? BUD GOT THE GAME BALL!! He was the only consistent hitter that night. For all of you baseball junkies, he was 4 for 5 and had 4 runs. He was soo excited to get the game ball! Can't you tell by the look on his face?





David also decided to do two more "projects". A few posts back I mentioned how he decided to try his hand at tiling the downstairs bathroom. Well, he also decided to tile the little space in front of the downstairs bonus room back door and also the kids bathroom upstairs.

Before he cut the carpet....biting my nails here.


Bud helping to scrape the floor. He loves to help daddy!






All finished!


And this is the kids bathroom upstairs....

Laying down the backer board. In case you are interested, when tiling upstairs, you have to place backer board down first. We just put it over the vinyl that was already there because keeping the vinyl down helps create more of a moisture barrier. Interesting huh?



Boogs wanted to help daddy too, so he was helping in the kitchen.




All finished! It looks great! I'm so proud of him. It really has been a learning experience for him.



Now, projects he still would like to do.

1)Tile our bathroom
2)Tile the kitchen
3)Get new carpet
4)Fix the crack in the garage floor, seal it and then paint with rubber paint?
5)Tile back splash in kitchen
6)Paint bonus room,downstairs bathroom and kids bedrooms
7)Get granite counter tops in kitchen
8)and the list goes on and on.

HA! We'll see. I see them all in small increments.
I'll have to get back to you on those.
