This is the kitchen. I didn't get any "before" pictures, but this is before any new paint went on, after the trim, etc, had been torn down. In the picture are my mom and dad, getting the drop cloth down in preparation for painting the ceiling.
We had lots of good help! Jaron loved the responsibility of poundin the nails and helping tear things down. He is working on the living room wall that got torn down to the studs.
Yea for new windows! Thsi windows is 1 1/2 times the size of the old one. It's wonderful!!!
Here's a picture of me putting the green paint on the wall behind the toy shelf. You can see a little of the green on the left in the corner. That color is now 30" high all around the living room, with wallpaper above, minus the north wall which was torn apart. More on that when it gets finished. . .
A view of the mess. :-) The little wall in the center that comes out into the counter used to be wood like the cabinets, and is now the cream color of the kitchen. It reall brightened things up! There is also now vinyl tile as a backsplash there too. More pics on that later. . .
Eliott being a big helper. His favorite toy is hammer, so when he got to use a REAL one he was thrilled! It kept him occupied for awhile!
Another shot of one of the new windows.
With everything so torn up still and all the changes I feel like I'm living in a different house!!! It's very exciting but also a very busy time and rather disruptive to our normal schedule. . . Oh well, it DOES look really, really nice and I'll be excited to share more pictures as we get more done and it actually gets finished!
