House day who knows

The house is still coming along great! Khloe's room is almost done, we bought tile for the kitchen and dining room, we bought a gas stove, and Jason got the cans in the front room up. Brett's sister Ali came over to help with the house. We took off the wallpaper and discovered a window that was no longer in use. They just wallpapered over the sheetrock mud and didn't even sand it down. At least we know why the wall is lumpy. We are going to need some kinda of thick texture to cover all the blemishes. Brett fixed the window so you can't even tell. Ryan got done with the closet in Khloe's room. It's massive, I think it just looks huge because it's not in the wall, like most closets. Ryan did a great job!! We need a pro plumber to come and put a gas line in for the stove we bought. We got such a deal at Lowe's. It was $583 at the store but when I checked online it was $527! We are the best bargin shoppers!! The tile we bought is beige and blackish blue for checkerboard on the floor and then the same beige for the backsplash. It's going to look so great when it finally gets done. We are thinking with camping next week and Brett painting a basement of another house this month, we probably won't get done by the end of the month. So we will be in the apartment one more month so we don't feel so rushed. Jason put the cans in the front room, there are so many. We will never have to worry about being in the dark!!
Thanks Ali, Caylie, Hailey, Jason, Tyler, Austin, Tim, Ryan and Tom for all your help!Front room ceiling, love all the cans
