Memorial Day Weekend

We were going to go camping, but Ruben was going to have to work then found out at the last minute he didn't. We figured since he has had little time off lately that we would of course work on the house. We FINALLY finished the rest of the cabinets in the kitchen and thenstarted tearing up the old lino tiles in the kitchen. That was a job! Olivia helped screw down the backer board. Luckily we have awesome neighbors who took the Maggie and Olivia different places for two days and Izabell chose to go to a friends house instead. On Monday they went and hung out at my moms. It was kind of nice for Ruben and I to just work together without the kids. With all the frustrations that come up when your doing home repairs, we didn't have one tiff!!
BEFORE-where's my sink?
DURING
AFTER- all that needs to be done now is to lay the new tile!! Who know that may not be until our next 3 day weekend!!! The kitchen took two days and on Mnoday we did something else......
I'll post it tomorrow. We had a dance rectial tonight and a swim meet in the morn so I'm tired....
