While Emily and I are fairly simple folks, we did decide that when building our new house, there were a few extravagances that we absolutely had to splurge on. I'd encourage you kind folks not to judge us when I tell you that our new house, gulp, will have 2 full bathrooms. Yes you read that correctly. Not one, but two FULL bathrooms - the plumbing for which was roughed in today (that means they installed the pipes that will be imbedded in the cement slab underneath the house).
I am sure all the people who enjoy coming to Tulsa to visit Emily and I will be super glad (disappointed?) that they won't have to (get to?) shower with me due to the lack of additional bathing facilities. You can thank me later.
Anyhow, on to some pictures. As you can see below, the plumbing has been roughed in, the wooden forms are in place, and all we need to be done now before the slab can be poured is for the massive amount of dirt on the lot to be spread back out to cover the plumbing. We are hoping to have a slab in place and be ready for framing by the end of the week.
Overall view of the lot with plumbing in place and wood forms ready for cement.
They dug underneath the footers in order to bring the main water line in from the street.
Here is the plumbing for the 2 bathrooms, master on the left (No, you may not take a bath in the big tub.), guest bathroom on the right.
Here is the area where the water heater will be hooked up (on the left, actually will be in the garage) and also where the washer and dryer will be hooked up (on the right). Feel free to come over and do our laundry any time you wish.
