Remodel: After!

Yay! There is an after! We still have a few things we need to do in order to be 100% done, but this is 95%, and that's good enough for a blog!

Here's the bathroom!

Remodel: Before/During

Early spring we began the REMODEL project on about 1/4 of our house. I'm kicking myself for not taking true "BEFORE" pictures, but everything was not in great shape. Braidy's old room was BRIGHT blue, John's room was a dingy grey, and the bathroom was yuck-o. We were going to completely remodel the boys' rooms and our guest/boys bathroom. It. Needed. It. We had what we wanted in mind, but who knew it would be SUCH a big project. Ryan did a lot of the demo himself, but we had the majority of it done by professionals. Ryan could probably have done it all, but between starting a new job, and raising a family, there was not time for him to tackle it all!  Here are some before and during pictures...BOY, was it a MESS!!!

front boys room after texture was blown.

Our poor wood floors in the hallway. I never thought they'd look the same again....

New texture!

New floor tile...my favorite!

Pretty new tile!

New granite and sinks!

Now this is a part Ryan and I did by ourselves. I just helped. But we hung all trim and crown moulding. What we thought would take a few hours took ALL NIGHT LONG. We were up until 4 or 5am hanging this stuff because the painter was coming the next morning! 

water and paint fiascos

I love this series of pictures. Sweet Quin was (very) happily playing with the water hose on one of our first warm/summery days of the spring. He then put it in his mouth and pulled the trigger a little too hard and shot himself in the face....he stood there shocked for a minute and then boo-hoo'd. Luckily, I was out there with my camera practicing a few things....and I caught it all. Too funny!

That same day, I made them sidewalk paint and somehow boys know how to turn ANY activity into a huge mess. Luckily this was outside, but they had fun....that was all that mattered!
