Weekend Warriors




Here are some demolition pictures of the house after this weekend's work...We (mostly Shay) got the wall between the kitchen and what was a bedroom torn down.  That bedroom is going to be the dining room.  We got another wall and closet almost torn out, too.  Can I say that plaster walls suck!!!  Before the demolition began, the first floor was 4 rooms: 2 small living areas, kitchen and a bedroom.  When all is said and done, it will be pretty much one big room.  Ok, I am tired, so just look at the pictures!!

Looking from the living area where the fireplace is to the back room that will be the dining room.
This is in the small hall and that is the side of the fireplace.


This view is from the living area where the fireplace is into the other living area.  Shay is tearing out the closet.  The doorway in the background is the staircase going up to the bedrooms and bathroom.



These pictures are looking in from the front door through the living room to the kitchen.  You can see the before picture in previous posts.

Before...

Here are some before pics. 



Well, here is a picture of the house we just bought last week.  It is a stone house built in 1925.  It needs a lot of work and that is what this blog is for.  I will try my hardest to keep updated photos of our work in progress.
