The Demolition Part I

We bought the house and moved in in July (the 4th of July weekend to be exact.) We were trying to decide what we could "live with", what we wanted to change right away, and how much demolition we were willing to try first thing. We thought start small...yeah right.

The original layout was...

 coming up the stairs to the first room,

then walk through it into the second bedroom. 

With Rich being tall and us knowing we wanted to expand our family eventually we knew the upstairs was not for us. Uncle Tim said if we hated the upstairs the most that we should just go for it! He pulled out the BIGGEST crow bar I had ever seen and the demo began!

It didn't seem so bad..

Ok, now we could see this was going to be a major project.

You know the ceiling is short when Hannah can touch it. :)

Of course, this was in July so the temperatures were pushing 100
