The Remodel

So I promised some photos from our remodel. These really don't do it justice. You can't see everything that's been done!  I have tried to document at least the living room - from the way it looked when we got it, to what it looks like now.  We still need windowsills (hoping to get those next weekend) and it still needs hardwood floor layed. The floor won't happen until everything else in the house is done.


As it looked when we got it - frayed paneling, leaky windows, dirty ceiling

This was sometime in February. Ceiling slats have been screwed in, new windows (and more of them) installed, and everything insulated.

Sometime in March. Ceiling is now painted (and believe me, it was hard work!), everything has sheetrock & working on mudding & taping.

How it looks now. All the walls mudded & taped, painting all done. Just waiting for windowsills (we even already have our shades) and flooring later on. And yes, the window is opened crooked - didn't notice 'till now.
     Megan's room is all done except for flooring & windowsill too.  Caroline & Laura's room is the same way. My room isn't even begun yet. We'll start an add-on after this is finished & we're moved in. (I'll be bunking somewhere in the meantime. Haven't quite decided where yet - perhaps in the huge closet <smile>)The kitchen is getting there. Pretty much everything done now except for plumbing & cabinets. Should get those sometime next week. <Super Big Smile>

Megan's Room - looking rather messy right now. We're putting up a light fixture today & then after cleaning it up, it only lacks a windowsill & carpet.

The Kitchen - floor looks horrible right? Can't wait 'till the hardwood is laid. Windowsills, trim & cabinets should add something as well.

Our best "helper" Amelia

She's in Caroline & Laura's room here - hard to picture their room just now, it has so much stuff in it!
