Friday, February 25th we signed all the papers making THE little HOUSE officially ours. Lance couldn't wait to get started on gutting the upstairs of the house. He worked on the house until 1:30am. My sister's family came over to our house on Saturday to help with packing and demolition at the little house. I was able to drive over with my Mom, Sister, and Sister in law to check out all the hard work. While the boys were working on the little house, my Mom and my sister were able to help clear out the unfinished part of the basement by bringing me the bins while I sat on our couch. We put the items into two piles. Long term storage or little house. It went pretty smoothly, but feel bad that my family is getting stuck doing all of the dirty work.
Before and After Photo's of the gut job. The large pile in the last picture was actually a very large birds nest that was up in the rafters of the ceiling. When Lance demolished the ceiling it fell to the floor...yuck! Sorry the pictures are not very clear. Lance said there was so much dust and debris floating in the air he could not get a good shot.
congrats!!
