Painting!

Yesterday the painters started in painting! They started with the living room ceiling and walls. That is all they got done yesterday. They were suppose to come today but with the horrible weather they decided not to risk driving over here! Tomorrow they should get the dining room, hallway and kitchen at least started! Here are the pictures of the living room!

Basement Ceiling Updated

Here are the updated pictures of the basement ceiling. It has been texturized and just needs to be painted! It's coming along!

Siding!

Here is the updated siding outside. Here is the before and after pictures. They will not be able to paint the outside siding until spring because it needs to be above 40 degrees to paint outside. There is also going to be a few more new siding boards on the side that aren't there yet!

Random Others!

Here are a few random pictures of our kitchen and dining room. There were a few cracks so they needed to plaster them!

Mountain Dew!

This post is for my friend Brittney. She had commented on her website that mountain dew does make the construction world go round - which I now know she is EXACTLY right! When I walked down to the basement tonight what did I see???? A mountain dew 12-pack! Right on Brittney!

Tuesday Basement!

They got the ceiling put up today and it looks great! They will put the texture on it tomorrow and it should be done! We are excited to have that phase done. Our new lights are looking good too with the ceiling! As for the walls - they plastered the walls to make it smooth and patched cracks. Ha ha...patched cracks, that sounds funny!!!

Working 9-5!

Well Tuesday was a big day to get more improvements around the basement, outside and living room! The workers got a lot done and they said they might be able to be finished with their part tomorrow, which is two days ahead of schedule! AWESOME! Here are the pictures of the living room before they got going, there is plaster everywhere!! Then next is the pictures of the living room with the plaster on the walls! As you can see in these picture I was watching the presidental address on TV. I was thinking about changing the channel but decided to pay attention and not watch my DVR!
