Hard Hats Needed

We are officially a "Hard Hats Required" work zone! We are remodeling our house! YEAH!!! For those who have had the privilege of entering the 1980's bungalow...it needed a LOT of work!!! Mostly just cosmetic work. This will be the scene around here for a long time.
The plan is to upgrade the existing condition, sell and build in North Liberty. If you read that and it really sank in...yes we are moving AGAIN!
The entryway is completed. We are going to put in new light fixtures but for now the existing ones work and the rest of the job is done. Nate custom build the bench with cubbies, the upper shelf with cubbies. He painted and put up the wood casing on the wall.
He tiled the floor in the entryway and put in all new trim around the floor and the doors. HUGE difference. The floor is also heated. This room was always freezing and this will be nice in the winter.

This is the mess I'm currently dealing with. There is a layer of construction dust EVERYWHERE. I tried to keep up at first, but I have given up. We will clean when the project is finished...at the end of this year :)

No worries...family coming for Shay's bday party this weekend, we will clean it up. You don't have to eat sawdust with your cake :)

I can't believe it! You are moving again. I thought you would die in that house after the excitement last time. I am so ready to be done moving but we probably have 3 moves left. Nate might need to put you in therapy by the time he is done...making you (Type A) live with all of the construction dust and clutter. Best of luck with the whole process my friend! Wishing you guys the best!
