Home Remodeling Update


Hey all! The construction continues at our house, but mom says there's a light at the end of the tunnel! Last time I wrote bout our home remodel, it was for our bathroom...here's some before (http://annathegsd.blogspot.com/2010/03/extreme-bathroom-makeover.html) and here's the after!

After that was finished, mom and dad started taking down all kinds of walls!! Apparently we had some "wood paneling" that mom didn't like so they took that down, and they're converting a spare room into a master closet! Finally a proper storage area for all my toys!

This is/was our dining area...mom and dad made a lot of the rooms look like this, then they re-hung sheet-rocks. Then dad said they were going to hire someone to "mud and tape the sheetrocks". Now I knows mud, but dad said it was a different kind! Whatever! So yesterday some peoples showed up and we were put outside. When we came back in, Dunc found this:
Hmm....mud in buckets?? That's not real hardcore Anna mud!
Simon and I talked it over...we're not sure about mud in buckets....

Then I looked at the floor and saw the awful mess!! I mean, the carpet is horrible AS IS but now it's got white footy prints all over it!

Mom said not to worry, she told them not to worry about the floors, cause she hates them. She said when mom and dad bought the house, the carpet was horrible, but they looked at the "bones" of the house and saw the potential, so they've lived with it and we're getting new floors! Here's a sample of the new carpet we're getting, it passes my Anna Bitey test! We're also getting some new wood floors!


Then mom said after the mud is done, we get to paint! Here's some colors they've picked out.




I think it will look really good! The orange is for the eating area, the tan for the living room/hall, greenish for bedrom and blue for a bedroom. I'll update with more photos as this moves along...as head supervisor it's my job to document the progress!
