ode to the handy man i married!!




Mark is wonderfully talented when it comes to work around the house. Our garbage disposer broke and he decided to just replace the whole sink! We knew we wanted to when we moved in but never got around to it. I love his days off because he sometimes does fun projects in my benefit. (not the barbecue he has been working on forever!) So I come home and the whole sink is ripped out.I said " uh please tell me you know what you are doing!" He said we will see. I was worried just a little but I knew he could do it! So I left to go give a massage and came home to a beautiful new sink and faucet. Boy what a difference it makes! He has done some other wonderful things around the house but its hard for me to want to do that stuff if we arent going to live in this house forever. Oh well I guess you just start all over with a new house. We are not moving any time soon but we would love a basement someday and if I want a suburban I need a bigger garage! Ha ha! Anyways I love my handyman thanks honey!

If I came home to a riped out sink I would be on the phone asap with a plumber! Love my hubby, but when it comes to installing a sink I think he would flunk! OK, he could do it, but the knobs would be backwards and it would leek!

way to go Mark! brownie points! he picked everything out himself? i would be worried with what scott would come home with. he would probably forget the sink and come home with a new baseball bat or something.

That is amazing. Honestly, Dave is so many talented, wonderful things. But he is NOT a fix it up kinda guy. So way to go Mark! It looks fantastic.

That is awesome that your hubby is a handy man. Jared hates doing big projects around the house. We also want to put in a new sink. So if I came home to one I would be shocked and excited if it ever got done!

I have always been impressed with Mark's handy man skills. Not only is he great at fixing sinks, building cars and decorating rooms, but He can keep his pants pulled up!! No plumber's crack here,That's something everyone can enjoy!
