It’s about time I shared with you pictures from Jesse’s remodel. I hit my first book deadline, so life is manageable now! 🙂
Jesse originally intended to remodel only the main bathroom, but as he got started, it became apparent the master bath needed it too. My brothers have an incredible work ethic, and they learned it through my dad’s example. He’s encouraged them over the years to work hard and learn new skills. I hope to do a separate post on that aspect.
Jesse saw God’s faithfulness every step of the way. He hit obstacles and times where things weren’t working well, but the Lord’s grace was sufficient.
The remodel is finished, and renters moved in mid-August.
Enjoy the photos below. I tried to get them in a fairly accurate timeline.
Love,

The remodel happened over a 2 month period, with 1 month being while the girls were gone. They love to help, and that help was definitely missed!
Getting John’s advice.
This was before Jesse invested in AirPods.
Putting the shower in.
John was a great help with mudding.
Teaching Jesse how to mud.
There’s always clean up to do during a project.
Dad painting. He’s awesome at that. He did a ton on this house.
Jesse cutting tile.
Joseph helped Jesse a lot too.
Putting in an outdoor light.
The fence was a real work of art (in a bad way, lol), with boards having been put up in a patchwork type array. Anna finished removing them here.
The final few days before renters moved in were crazy. Lots of the family pitched in to help clean and do all the last-minute stuff.

The final product! It’s hard to believe it’s the same room, but it is!
This is the master bath. I don’t have a good before.

he shall stand before kings;
he shall not stand before mean men.”
