The Bathroom
{

The bathroom is done! Not done done, but done. The inside still needs flooring and trim, but that is it. We are thinking about hardwood floors, but still haven't decided, so I can go no further for now. I started sanding and finishing the drywall on Friday night, then I drug Erin to Home Depot for a study break to pick the paint. On Saturday and Sunday I finally got to paint and put the bathroom back together.

Well this weekend we traveled up to East Lansing to watch MSU take on UM in football. We tailgated with Phil and Kim and their family. I crushed everyone at the beanbag game, and then we watched the game out in the parking lot. The outcome was not what we hoped for, but it was fun anyway. As you can see from the pictures, it was a little creepy that Phil and I showed up wearing the exact same thing. Contrary to popular belief we did not plan it.

No, it is not a new "must have" toy for christmas, it is what I tried to convince Justin to name his next child (sorry Heather). This past week was a long and tiring one for me. On Thursday I had the day off work, so I met my adopted sister (Lynnie) for lunch, then kicked back and watch some of the dog whisperer. Then I got to go and practice with Phil's soccer team which was fun.
Friday was my test, which I almost missed, apparently it takes 59 minutes and 30 seconds to get from my parents house to where my test was. I walked in and they shut the doors 30 seconds later to start the test. 8 hours later I was done!! I won't know how I did for another 3-4 months.
Saturday my dad and I went to Sturgis to fix my grandparents porch. (see pictures below).
On the way home I thought I would be nice and stop and buy Erin some flowers. I got into the store and saw that I could do WAY better than that. I thought to myself...if I bought her flowers they would only last a week to enjoy, but if I bought her something else she could enjoy it for much longer than that. That's right, I bought her a TREE (norfolk island pine). She was a little thrown off at first, but I think she is beginning to like it.
Erin went shopping with her mom, sister Kate, and grandma on Saturday and came back to South Bend Saturday night. We went out to celebrate me finishing my test, and her finishing another hard week of school.
On Sunday I decided to get back to working on the bathroom, and we bought a new pot for a fern that Erin is still nursing, so that we could re-pot the lovely tree that I bought her. (see pictures below)

Just for Justin

Well I am back. Apparently I need to clarify and change some things. This will be the JON-BLOG 1.0 because there was no original JON-BLOG to make it 2.0 (thanks to Philhamburger whoever you are).
Anyway, Justin aka Harbert, called and yelled about me not putting up pictures of the progress of the bathroom. For all you newcomers to the JON-BLOG 1.0 I started to put in a downstairs bathroom on July 4, 2007. The year is important because it may extend into '08 before it is completely done. It is functional, but has not been worked on in awhile because this Friday I am once again taking my PE (professional engineering) test, and I have been studying for it for the past few months. It should be fun, well as much fun as an 8 hour test can be. Anyway, here are your pictures Justin.

Sorry for the delay. Erin has been super busy with school, so against my better judgement I am taking over the blog. This is the new and improved JON-BLOG 2.0, but still family friendly.
So to update you on the past 2 months here are some things that have gone on:
Jon helping build his cousins house
Erin's first day of school (you look wonderful)
Erin studying with her REAL human bones
After I set fine to the kitchen, Erin won't let me cook anymore. Don't worry, it was a "small" grease fire, and it was contained. No firemen were called into action. We won't mention that I set the grill on fire tonight and had to almost submerge the grill in baking soda (thanks for the tip Kristin)
Tailgating at the MSU football game with Phil, Kim, and their family.
Jon and Kristin at their cousins wedding.
Jon and Phil at the MSU-Notre Dame football game.....if you even want to call it a game. GO GREEN - GO WHITE
Erin tried to steal a baby, but I made her give it back. Actually that is Lily, the newest addition the the Harbert family. Lets welcome her with a big round of clapping....come on....there you go. We went down to Indy to visit them and play with the baby.
Lastly we have the big white dog, the big fat dog, and the medium-size scardy dog.
So that in a nutshell is our life over the past few months, sorry I didn't go into more detail, but I didn't want this to get very long. I will try to keep up with it more now that it is mine............all mine......ha ha ha (evil laugh)

We had such a busy weekend I couldn't fit all the excitment into one blog. So here is the weekend continued. So Sunday we had brunch with Mrs. C, Larry and Kristin to celebrate Larry's birthday. We had some good food and good times. Later that afternoon we atem more good food, (liquid cheese and cake-I was in heaven)at a family friends anniversary party. Then we ate more good food at my cousin Levi's, aka the ring bearer, birthday party. He was decked out in a cowboy hat, cowboy boots and a leather belt. He made out like a bandit!!! Here he is sporting the hat and 70's shag hair!!!!
Jon and I rocked the transformer masks...Wow we are cool :O)
The puppies haven't been on the blog in awhile so here is a pic of them being cute. AWWWWWWW.....
