Flood o' Photos!






My parents were nice enough to lend us their saw and brad nailer today. I also drove into Totem this morning to get all of the tile for the back entrance. I'm glad we have a truck! We then worked on cleaning up the garage and putting down tile.

Our appliances came on the 15th and we got a couple of them set up. Beck also laid the last of the tile in the kid's bathroom.

You can also check out our bi-fold closet doors. My mom came out last week and helped us paint trim and doors. Thanks Mom!

I'm also aware that this post is disjointed and possibly the worst thing I've ever written. Meh.

More.



Sorry.



Sorry it took me a week to post these! Here are the pantries for the kitchen. Ikea was out of the drawer fronts for the bottom. I'd wish for an Ikea to go up in Lethbridge but I know we'd just get a useless downscaled one like our Home Depot. Another thing that is infuriating me about Home Depot Canada is that for some reason we're expected to pay up to twice the amount for the same merchandise that our cousins do to the south. Try as I might, I can't seem to figure out the justification for this. I guess HD Canada just thinks it's OK to rip us off.

Examples:
1 Roll of Schluter Matting Great Falls - $80 Calgary -  $150
1 Ridgid Vacuum Great Falls - $99 Lethbridge -  $150
1 Ridgid Table Saw Great Falls - $450 Lethbridge - $550
Stainless Range Hood Great Falls - $340 Lethbridge $3200!


Also Beck has laid down the heat mats and some of the main bathroom and kitchen tile. I'll try to get some pics today. Appliances are coming on the 15th. 

I'm throwing in a picture of the Sweetgrass hills from Writing-On-Stone park 'cause all the photos I take from our deck don't really do them justice.

And yes… our cupboards will have toekicks–they snap on to those ugly-looking black legs you see under the cabinets.
