Bathroom Remodeling Part II: The Hole in the Wall

Since the wedding, George has put in many more hours planning and working on our bathroom remodeling project. I've helped a bit too - and learned how to safely use a mitre saw! - but I can't take too much credit: he's done most of the work himself.

After some consideration, we selected the exact jacuzzi tub we wanted and brought it home from Lowe's in a huge box. Alas, thanks to a labeling error on the box, we had to lug it back to Lowe's and get yet another one. We now have the correct tub sitting in our dining room. With the tub in our possession, we could begin planning how exactly the it would go in the bathroom and how we wanted it framed. George designed and began work on the frame for the tub. On a subsequent trip to Lowe's, we learned that the window we'd special-ordered had arrived! With the tub still serving as a play area for Quincy in our living room, this turned out to be the perfect time to install the beautiful new window!It was amazing how quickly George had a giant hole in our bathroom wall. Check back soon for a video of this process.
With the window at last installed, Quincy inspected the work and gave us the "ok" for the next stage of our remodeling.You can see more pictures of the latest stage in the project by clicking right here.
