Out with the Old... in with the New

Removing the Window in the Living Room:
Chris and Jack took out the window from the living room that looked out onto the front porch (a.k.a; our temporary kitchen at the moment)







Opening the Entry Doorway and Removing Plaster:
Because we added the half bath it felt like the entry way to the kitchen was much smaller. The doorway was opened up and all of the old horse hair plaster was removed.







Griffin took a nap...he really should be helping out a little more....

Labor Day Weekend

Well having a three day weekend allowed us to get a lot done!

With help from friends we were able to frame out the openings for the new windows on the first floor, strip down the siding/shingles and Tyvek the outside of the house. I also threw in a picture of the new grass - it's really looking nice!

It's always nice to see progress...
