Demolition Time

So Demo is going very well and pretty quickly, we are pretty much finished with all the demo now it is time for plumbing, electrical, floors then sheet rock and we will be off from there!


This is the dinning room for some reason there is a chimney that is stuck in that hole and up through the ceiling but it has since come down as well. I think I am going to extend my kitchen just a little bit and have a nice size breakfast bar about where that wall and trash can are. Then sorta where I am standing to take the picture will be my table.
Bathroom we are completly switching this all around, so when it is done that the bathtub and shower will be on the wall where the window is. (we hope we can move a window above the shower but we will just see how much room we have) Then the vanity will be on the wall of many colors with the toilet either between the vanity and tub or vanity an wall where the door will be. With a big huge mirror above the vanity!

From the back of the house I am standing in the mudroom, and where Tyler's dad is standing is the kitchen looking into the dinning room. (see how that weird chimney wall is gone) It is so much more open too. Oh another bonus is that we were able to raise the ceiling and I cant belive what a HUGE difference that made. It seems so much bigger throughout the whole house!

More kitchen, this is the wall between master bedroom and kitchen, the door way you see is to the bathroom.

Tearing down ceiling and we found a HUGE birds nest it was super nasty!

From where the front door is now looking into the family room and master bedroom. Check out the ceiling, doesn't it make a difference to have that raised!!!

Master bedroom, family room, dinning room, and a little bit of the kitchen.

Look above the window at the massive bees nest!! Yes there was bees frozen in it! This is in th kitchen and can you just imagine cooking hereing this buzzing constantly. UGH! So gross!

This was another bees nest Ty found on the other side of the house! Seriously huh!

Bathroom ceiling is super weird, we thought we could just raise it like we did the rest of the house but this is what we found, slanted? But maybe it will be really cute and add some character, we shall see?
So far it has been super fun to go in and see all the work that Tyler and my dad have done, I cant belive how fast it is going. Hopefully it will continue to go quick! Thanks to Tyler's dad and mom for coming and visiting and helping out too! I cant wait for the day when you can come and visit and have a nice guest bedroom to stay in!
