Ultra Soft Water Softener

So Saturday Kristen and I thought it would be nice to have soft water in our house. So we went t0 SEARS and bought a Kenmore Ultra Soft Water Softener. After we bought it we had to decide if we wanted to install it our self or pay $209.00 to have them install it. Talking to the sales person we thought we could do it our self. He showed us a diagram smiler to this saying this is how our waterlines will look and that all we have to do is sweat two lines and screw on the universal adapters
Well when we got home we where very excited so finally have soft water, if you have ever lived in a cold place and only had hard water then you know how bad your skin can dry out. So when we got home and looked at our water system we found out that it was not like the diagram we were shown.So what we had to do was completely re-run all the copper tubbing so that the water going to the kitchen and the down stairs bathroom would have soft water.
First off We called our friend Josh over, I like to have a second set of eyes.
After talking with Josh and coming up with a game plan we caped off the old water lines that ran to the Kitchen and downstairs bathroom.
After we caped off the lines we re-ran the water lines above the inlet of the water softener. This way we completely tie in the whole water system.

As you can see we had our hands full and I think it turned out very well, no leaks at all! One more weekend project successfully completed.

Kristen's Going to Nashville!!

I am leaving for Nashville Thursday, March 6 and returning Monday, March 10. I am going to visit my mom who is just moving down there this weekend for a job. I am so excited to go. I just purchased tickets to the Grand Ole Opry for Friday, March 7. We are going to get to see Josh Turner, Diamond Rio, and Sunny Sweeney. We are on the floor so it is going to be amazing!

I also have her convinced to drive out to Knoxville and drive the Tail of the Dragon. I told her this is where Adam and I are going for our vacation and it would be cool to go and look at places to stay while we are there for two weeks! I am just so excited, oh I think I said that already!

Saturday Fun
