Remodel

We worked really hard for about a month (it seemed longer) and got three bedrooms downstairs instead of two. After we got all the sheetrock up, we moved the boys into their rooms so we could have some order (i.e. no more sleeping on temporary beds in the living room) for school. We will eventually get them painted and re-carpeted. While everything was out in the garage being stored, I re-stained the bunkbeds and painted an old dresser that Garth used when he was growing up. It was a lot of work but they turned out so nice that I decided it was worth it. So here are some pictures of the rooms so far...

Also a big THANK YOU to all who helped with our project.

This is the room that was added so is the most changed. It is L shaped because it needed a window. This picture is taken from the bottom part of the L by the window looking into the main room.

A wall was added to shorten R2's room.

Bob had only minor changes. The closet was cut in half and the adjacent wall re-sheetrocked due to bad wiring.

Here they are waving from their own bedroom door.

The bunkbeds - which are in two separate rooms now, received a lot of sanding and a darker stain.

This is the dresser. I found out that it is actually 50 years old. Its held up remarkably well. It had an X carved in the top and some other scratches that needed to be filled in - otherwise it was in really good shape!

Star Valley

These are pictures from our trip to Star Valley. We went up Swift Creek Canyon (which is my favorite place to go) and got to see the new power plant that is being built. It is so beautiful there!
