Lots of help this weekend!

This past week we didn't get much done after Monday when Matt finished sanding all the floors in one day. We've also been having some camera trouble, since all the cords that go with my camera are in storage. Scott came home from school to help demolish the kitchen and Matt's parents came to help knock out the wall between the kitchen and dining room. Here's a couple pictures of what our kitchen looks like now (not much like a kitchen at all).

Starting to build up the wall again.

Matt and his Dad.

The new beam where the wall used to be.

Matt's Mom and his sister Natalie helping out.

The only thing left in the kitchen, the sink and part of the counter top.

I painted the bathroom upstairs and started painting one of the upstairs bedrooms. Natalie and Ben painted the basement walls. My brother and Dad helped rip up the floors in the kitchen and ripped out all the cabinets and helped with a bunch of other stuff.

Primed...

First coat of paint.
Basement walls painted.
Picked up a washer and dryer this weekend.

It's starting to come together. We get the cabinets for the kitchen late this week or early next week. Until then, there is still lots of painting to do and lots of prep work in the kitchen, like wiring and stuff. We appreciate all the help that we have been getting!
