Pardon our dust...

There has been a lot of construction going on around here.

Some you'll see below...

AND

Some going on behind the scenes of the blog

 (more on that later)

Here is some of the beginning of the 

construction even though it looks like the end.

I can't explain how the sight of this makes me sooo happy! 

 

Hmmm....I wonder what the colors will be?

The ol' Daddy-o had a wild idea last week

that lead into the photos you see above. 

Usually, when we decide to tackle

a project like this

we'll hem-and-haw

and then we'll

hem-and-haw.

Not this time!

You see--I didn't even

know that remodeling not

one BUT two

rooms were on the

agenda.

And like I said...

Daddy-O had a wild idea!

The two rooms in question were the collect all rooms.

One room belonged to the dog and the other to my husband and his crap office. 

The first room in question is a tiny bedroom that has never received much love since we bought the place in 2003.  This room has since received even less love when my husband moved his office and shop home. 

We have always talked about the potential of this room but given the crazy dog situation that we have going on we decided we wouldn't do anything to these two rooms until the dog situation was resolved.

Well, the dog situation isn't solved but with the addition of this little beauty....

and with the need to do something about this...

Daddy decided something had to be done and he could no longer wait.

So....this has been happening.....

We were a few sheets of drywall away from gutting both rooms. 

I wish I had before pictures.  Although, I am pretty sure I wouldn't have posted them because I am far too embarrassed about how the one room looked before.  The after is all that will matter.

Daddy's office is becoming the "Hunter's Lodge" as I like to call it

AND

That small poorly neglected dog room will become my new crap crafting room!

I cannot wait to share the after photos with you all!

Thank you daddy for all the hard work, sweat, and blood you are putting into these rooms.

Only a kitchen, dining room, master bedroom, hallway, guest bath and master bath to go!
