Goodbye Hot Tub, Hello Basement

Yesterday we sold our Hot Tub after having it listed on Craig's List for only one night. I was sad to see it go because we did have some fun times in the hot tub. It has been a fun thing for six months but the novelty is wearing off and we have been using it less and less. When I told Jacob we had sold it he cried because he didn't want it to go. He and his friend Ali had on last hora while it drained.

The guys had to take our fence apart to get the hot tub out. It was sad and exciting to watch.



Here is the empty space that will soon become something else, grass or patio, we are not sure.

So why did we sell the hot tub? So we could have more yard space and so we could use the money to buy new carpet for our almost finished basement. Ben has been doing such a great job in the basement. We started from cement walls two months ago and now the drywall is half way done. We have great plans for a TV mounted to the wall, surround sound, office space and toy room. But all of that will take awhile:) I am very excited to have it finished, it will be a great addition to our house!
