Mr. Fix It

It seems in the last few months we've had a ton of home repairs!  Poor Karl has hopped from one project to another.  It all started when Parker went to take a shower in our master bathroom and the door came right off the hinges!  We told him that he had an Incredible Hulk moment, and to lighten up with the crossfit..:)
Karl bought a new part and replaced the rusted hinge.

Next our kitchen faucet was leaking, drip..drip...drip...he took it all apart and it's as good as new!

He built an awning for our chicken coop, so the chickens would stop flying up and over, and they'd get a little shade in the summer...it's beautiful!

Our printer needed help, he fixed that.

Finally we noticed a musty, moldy smell in our craft/storage room and upon digging further, found there has been a leak from our master bathroom toilet, trickling down to the basement, creating BLACK MOLD!  AAagh!  It is a NIGHTMARE!  Karl has ripped out part of the basement wall, the insulation and we're spraying it with tons of Borax.  The upstairs toilet area is torn up and the tile, bead board, subfloor etc. will all need to be cleaned up and put back.  It's a monster project, but the amazing thing, is that Karl is so great at everything, I know it will get done, and look beautiful again.
I love how he make things nice, even for a chicken coop!
