kudo's to my brother

I keep forgetting to send the proper recognition my little brother's way. He recently spent some serious time re-modelling our fireplace, which used to be an atrocious pile of nasty painted tiles.

NOW, as you can see, due to my brother's brick-laying skills, the fireplace looks AWESOME!


Our kittie's are always cute too.
Thanks - you kick ass!

ps. if you are wondering, he is also going to do the mantle, as soon as we buy some brick without the texture so it can lay flat. He did such a great job, the old crappy mantle fit right back over the top - it looks infinitely better than it used to.
