The Basement

We have had a lot of fun getting the basement ready for Liz and Josh. A lot of fun and probably, too many memories. When Bill and I got married, he kept telling the girls that he was going to get the bathroom finished downstairs. We took a long time to finish the bathroom in the basement. There were many reasons. One big one, aside from financial, was that Bill didn't want the girls to watch TV down there and make out with their boyfriends. He had heard in a meeting that kids with dates should not be in their parents basement unsupervised. Anyway, he did finally get the bathroom finished. I think Liz was the only one left home when it happened. Jenn and Fam got to enjoy it for a while when they did their time with us. In our new "redo" we decided to tile the whole bathroom floor instead of just part of it. When they tore the carpet up, they uncovered the long forgotten Bill "heart" mk. Some of it got covered up again before I got a picture, but I think you get the idea. You can see the "Bill" clearly and the top of the heart. Thanks, Babe. You're the best!

Maybe we can get the guys to rip up the other cement so we can see the rest of the message? I wouldn't be surprised if we had a picture of it. I for one wouldn't mind if the "Elizabeth hearts Scotty" stayed covered up. Ah, Kindergarten boyfriends.
