We purchased a house and closed on it on Wednesday and were able to take possession on Thursday. We wasted no time getting to work. The first thing we did was pull the kitchen cabinets down from the middle of the ceiling.
We then cut the counter top by the sink to move these cabinets to the front wall to open up the kitchen. This made a huge difference in the size of the kitchen. Our kitchen table will go in the middle.
The next step was to remove the old flooring. We used every tool we could find.
We had different techniques but after several long hours we had all of the flooring up.
This had to be the worst part, removing the old vinyl.
Now it was time to patch up the wholes and spaces left behind by the demolition.
Carter could not be left out of the sheet rocking fun
In the boys bedroom is a very pretty mural and I tried to talk Thomas into letting it stay. We figured that if we are going to put in new carpet it needed to be painted first. The big tree had to go.
The first time we showed the room to Seth he turned and ran the other direction. He was not happy with it.
He really enjoyed painting over the tree.
Carter also took part in the painting fun!!!
