We have been working hard on the house for the past couple of weekends. We have sucessfully pulled up all of the carpet throughout our living, dining, and hallway. Ty is not too happy that we have taken away his comfy carpet. Soon enough we will be replacing it. I've made him a little palette with some of our old blankets. We have knocked down a few walls which you should be able to see in the pictures. The guys from small group came over and helped Chris reconfigure all of the roof/ceiling supports. And our friends Brice and Lauren have been a HUGE help spending most of their weekends at our place. (they're in the pics below)
Let's see what else have we accomplished... We tore out the marble entry (yuck) and put in some new concrete to level things out. I helped Chris do this on my birthday and I definitely got my work out, that's for sure. We have removed our brick from our fire place, it was kind of old and dirty and with what we are planning on doing to the rest of the house it would stick out like a sore thumb. We de-popcorned the ceilings, and yes that's a technical term, what a glorious task. You can see Chris below with his huge scraper. It's crazy how much old lady smell left the house that weekend.
