The Ball is Rolling

What a weekend!
It started with Black Friday, Adam was up by 5 and in line at Menards well before 6am.
For those of you from M'town he had to park by Radio Shake and his spot in line was just beyond the drive up for US Bank.
Highlights of the loot:
interior doors
closet doors
ceiling fans
vanity tops

Then he was off to Sears, M'towns best secret. It's a dealer store and black friday deals are not limited to what's in stock (the add says only 2 per-store on many items). Adam got a dishwasher; I later returned for the stove and microwave. Oh and a tv too, one of the best deals of the day, the sign was $100 over actual purchase price :) I could hardly hold back my excitement while sliding my debt card.

We spend Saturday working. I mostly primed and Adam prepared the kitchen for a back splash. FYI if you ever want to change your backslash don't tile directly on drywall. The previous owner did just that. We had a nice work day and the girls did great. They spent a good portion of the day coloring a VERY large box. Ellie napped wonderfully in Averie's room. I was hoping to start priming her room but, as most of this will go our goals exceed what we actually complete.

Sunday was another big day. Adam and I headed to Des Moines for light fixtures, door knobs, bathroom vanity and fixtures, cabinets, and hardwood flooring. We didn't get everything, I'm having a inner battle with bathroom fixture finished. But, it was a productive day to say the least. A special thanks goes out to the driving crew, we obviously couldn't of done it with them. We're very thankful to have such great friends! And BOO to the lady at Home Depot who said it won't fit!
