Rebuild


And then we finally started to rebuild.
Insulation in walls, drywall up, textured walls, painted walls and ceilings , tile down the hall and into the front room and kitchen. Then finally the cabinets and appliances were put in.
That is what the kitchen looked like when we moved in. No stove and no dishwasher. There was a sink and counter tops put in shortly after this picture was taken.
Her is the start of the Demolition took out all of the cupboards and appliances. We had to ripe out all of the old tile. The Matt started riping out walls and ceilings and it was a MESS!!! The girls and their boy cousins had fun helping tear out the tile and pound out the walls. It was fun!
















Demolition Time

Here are some of the demolition that was done.

Our New Home

As most of you know we purchased a new house. We actually bought it the day after Thanksgiving. Then we gutted the place. Matt rewired the entire house and then he started riping out drywall. After about 3 weeks I thought we were starting to rebuild and then he tore down a few more walls and a few more and we ended up tearing out 95% of the walls. I thought it would never get done. We finally moved in on March 8th the day after my birthday. The house is still not finished but it is very livable and we love it.
