adventures in home owning #3

HOME IMPROVEMENTS!!!  
we have been having fun making little improvements to our new home.  it's a lot of work and we have A LOT more work ahead, but it's kind of fun sine it is OUR house!!
 my biggest project has been the tile....can i just say right now...I HATE TILE!!! which is kind of a bummer since over half of our house is tile!  as you can tell from the picture, i really don't think this floor had EVER been cleaned!  NASTY!!! but with a lot of hard work and many bottles of bleach soft scrub, we are getting clean.  i'm about half way done with the whole house and have already put 10+ hours into it.  blah
 Jake built us a little desk/work space.  the previous owner left those drawers, and cabinets in the garage, so with a little repairing and reconstructing, we were able to make them useful.  way to go babe!
this last picture is one of my favorites....i came home from a Relief Society activity and jake was up sawing the ceiling...he looked at me and all he said was "Because i CAN!"  haha...it was for good though, he put in a very nice surround sound system!  he's got to get the important things done first of course!
