Remodeling Our House

This is our newest and continuing project- trying to finish up the remodeling of our house so we can go buy a new one that will more adequately fit our growing family! We began this right before we were married. We tore out the walls in what was to be our bedroom and put all new drywall-paint, etc. However, that has never been finished because of one thing or another. Finally- 4 years and a few tries later- we finished our bedroom. In the album you will see 2 pics of it. One is right after we finished the new carpet and baseboard trim. The other is of our new bed that we have desparately needed for 4 years now. Believe me, at 8 months pregnant, I need the most comfortable bed we could find and this bed is awesome!! Everyone that reads this should consider getting a Sleep Number bed!
The other pictures are of our living room. We decided to go ahead and try to get that finished before the baby gets here. It has always been freezing in the winter so we are hoping that with some new insulation, it will improve considerably. We began on Saturday at about 3pm to pull the old walls off. Some of the new drywall has already started to go back up. We are not close to finishing yet but will be working on it for the rest of the month. Come back and look at the album throughout the month as I will be adding pics as we continue to finish it. Hopefully we will be finished and carpeted by Thanksgiving.

Hey Wilmer and Rachel. Thanks for sharing some pics. We just celebrated M~'s 3rd birthday, 10/9! Can't hardly believe 3 years have flown by. Hope you are well and Wilmer gets the house finished before No. 2 arrives!
