Renovating the house!

It seems so odd to be writing about it without any pictures to show- and Eric and I are doing it exactly the opposite way that we did the Boulevard house- mostly because there's not a lot of demo and what we are working on is mainly painting and (hopefully) tiling.

So two weekends ago, we took out the old yucky living room carpet. It cost us $16 to get rid of it at the dump. This past weekend, we took down all the wallpaper in the boys' rooms and painted Vake's room.

I got an estimate from the plumber to take out the old bathtub upstairs in the boys' bathroom and to put in a normal tub and shower. It is a lot cheaper if we do the demo, so our big project this weekend is to demo the area around the tub! Wheeeeee- I've never really done demo like this so I am a little afraid. But even more than afraid, totally thrilled to be getting rid of the crummy crummy bathtub that feels like a death trap to get the boys in and out.

  2. Besides, like Eric said the last time you went through it, "Demolition is fun!"
