The house is starting to slowly, but surely feel like home. The pool is crystal clear (although I still have some mold spots that I need to scrub). I've been swimming in it every day for the past 3 days. It's a bit cold, but in the 90 degree heat it feels wonderful.
The bathroom is almost done. We did some touch up painting on Sunday and still have a little more to do. We then need to hang the wallpaper border and mount various hardware (towel racks, door curtain, etc) and we'll be done (for now).
The toilet in our bathroom is still out of commission. It appears that the bolts aren't secured to the floor and will need to be replaced. I think I might get a wild hair this weekend and pull the toilet up to have a look. I'll probably regret doing that, but it's really annoying to have to use the main bathroom in the middle of the night.
We bought the dining table on Saturday and it is awesome. My friend at work was very kind to let us have it for such a bargain. It is over 8 feet long when fully extended and seats 10 people, although we only have 8 chairs for now. We bought some plastic covers for the seats so the kids don't discolor them with their greasy fingers and food spills. Unfortunately, the hot days make sitting on them very uncomfortable. I think we'll need to make some cloth covers which should be easy if I can convince Rebecca to make them. :)
Craig came over last night and we talked about the stage and risers for the home theater for a while. He is going to help me design and hopefully build it all. I should have more on this later. We're just in the early design phase right now.

The flanges that hold the bolts in place are what I think need to be repaired which may require some work on the floor under the toilet. Replacing the toilet is easy, I agree. :) Thanks for the feedback though Josh!
