Aaaahhhhh April Part I...

The 2nd phase of our house renovation is underway. Here's a little tour of what's been happening. If you don't remember or never saw the old house, the above pics are the old "tv room". It was an addition my dad worked on in 1986ish. There was a small bathroom, closet and large room where we watched tv. Cade had a blast playing in there and showed us he can "drift" with his cars. So here's the before...
Outside the house. Where the decking starts is the new addition: our room upstairs. The family room and mom's craft room downstairs.
Demolition of the "tv room"
Getting ready to pour cement to even out the floors.
After pouring
The new bathroom/pantry area
No stairs! Yep, the stairs have to be redone. They'll be wider and angle at the end.

New upstairs drywalled: the kid's new room. The doorway to the left will open up and connect with the loft area of the new side.
Cade in Gammy's craftroom. The cabinets and countertops went it! So clean! Yes, that's his "undies"! If this kid could walk around in ONLY his UNDIES, he would.

Another view of the craftroom
View into the new family room. If you're lost, the craftroom is to the right, new kitchen will be to the left. This door was on the old outer wall of my bedroom. It will become the dining room.

View into my old bedroom, from the new family room. That's the small bedroom Garrett, Kenny and I lived in! Feels so good to be spread out upstairs now! So, there you have it...hopefully more progress to share soon!
