Master Bath Redo Continued...


I forgot I had a few more pictures I had taken in my phone. So here they are:

This is the cement Alex used to level out the floor before the new floors went down...

We changed out the A/C vent and the exhaust fan. We added an exhaust fan with a light to help out with the lighting in the shower. We needed this because even though our new lighting is beautiful it is quite as bright as what we had before.
Hopefully soon I will have the Afters!
Oh and I am working on a post about a marriage seminar Alex and I went to a couple of weeks ago...
Till then!

Master bath redo

Labor day weekend the hubby and I decided to finish the redo we had started months ago on the master bath.  We already redid the shower, turning it from a tub/shower combo into a full stand up shower.  So that weekend we painted (well actually I did this!), put up a new light above the sink, put in a new vanity (a taller one with more counter space), and replaced the a/c vent as well as the exhaust fan, added a swanky new mirror (that I just love!) and put down new wood floors!  I only have a picture of the vanity area because my mom wanted me to text her a picture of the project so I had this picture on my phone! lol The befores as well as the after of the shower I still need to upload off my camera. But I thought I would at least update on this part because well, I have been slacking on my blog posts!

Yes I know our bathroom is small, but we have an older house and thats the way they come!




So I participated in the second annual scarf swap over at the Sweet T Family and will have a blog up soon telling ya'll all about it!!

Till then....

The Lovely Scentsy!

A few months ago my sister and I hosted a girls night for all our friends.  Along with yummy food, drinks and games we also hosted a Scentsy Party!! If you don't know what a Scentsy is, it is a very fragrant wax that you melt with a light bulb! So safe and smells sooo good! After that night, I have become addicted to them.  That night I bought two full size warmers, two plug-in warmers for my bathrooms and like 10 of the scent bars!



If these sound interesting to you and you want to try them out or you already love them and want more...then check out Ms. Danielle over at Living in the 'burbs with the Lenz's!!!  She is the wonderful Independent Consultant who hosted our Scentsy Party.  She is doing a Giveaway over on her blog...so check it out!! If you don't win and still want to have one of these beauties in your home you could host a party with her(if your in the Houston area) or order straight from her Website!

Sex in the City 2

Ok so I went to see the movie that everyone has been talking about...thats right...Sex in the City 2! I had been hearing a lot of mixed reviews on the story line as well as the overall likability of this movie. I heard from several people that this follow up to the fabulous first Sex in the City movie lacked a story line and that it was only good for laughs and to catch up on some old characters. These several people also said they would not buy the movie. On the other hand, I heard from several others that it was not quite as good as the first movie but it was loved just the same. Well now I can put my own two cents in because I have actually seen it!
I personally loved the movie just as much as I loved the first. I did think there was a story line and a good one at that. I will leave it at that for anyone who wants to see it but still hasn't. Here is the weird part of my movie going experience....The film that this particular theater had, showed the microphone throughout almost the entire movie. Weird? I know! So for about 85% of the movie you could see this little black ball above the person's head. A lot of times you could see the whole mic as well as the bar that holds it up. A couple of times I even could spot the track lighting on the ceiling. My mom commented, even though I didnt personally catch it, that she could see the soundman's shadow! The movie was still enjoyable, you just needed to look past these little "imperfections"! Now the movie theater we went to was not a "ghetto" theater. It was fairly new and a chain theater. I really wanted to speak with a manager and get a partial if not full refund. My mom, who I was with, however talked me out of it stating it wasnt that big of a deal. What do ya'll think? Would you have spoken with a manager if you were in my shoes? I just figured why should I have to pay full price for an unfinished movie? I even wondered if they knew what they were showing.
So that was my interesting movie going experience! Very strange I know!
.........Until next time............
