Mud, Tape, and a Switcheroo!

Today we are mudding and taping the new room... since I took pictures of Dave all day yesterday hanging sheetrock he thought one of me applying mud was hilarious... yes, in the past 24 hours I have helped carry 11 pieces of sheetrock from the garage to the bonus room, helped hang the sheetrock (since one person can not hold and attach it alone), and mud and taped the walls. Since all the shopping is done and the gifts are wrapped, I thought some Christmas construction would be fun! Plus we all know when women get in there and help, the job gets done a little faster!!
We've officially decided that this new room will become Nathan's room and his old room will become the baby's nursery. This made perfect sense since his old room is right next door to ours and the new room also ended up being a little larger than his old room, and since he has the big bed that used to be in the bonus room it made even more sense for him to have a bit larger room. That probably all sounds confusing, but it works perfectly for us! So the kids and I tackled the big project this afternoon of switching out the closets...
