The During

Work continues on the remodel at our new house. Our friend Ian has done the bulk of the serious work, we found a guy on craigslist for the hardwood floors (they did a great job), and we've hired a couple of other friends for this and that.

So the walls are torn down, the floors have been replaced, a kitchen island is in place, and all the downstairs moulding is new. We also have two new windows in our master bedroom (it was a bit of a cave before), the wallpaper border in Grace's room has been removed, and tile is laid and grouted in the entryway. The kitchen cabinets are midway through the process -- they've been sanded and we'll paint them this week, we hope, along with painting the entire downstairs (living/dining/kitchen/entry) and two bedrooms (Grace's and ours). Once all of this is done, we'll have a cleaning party (more info to come) and have the carpets upstairs cleaned. Whew.

Here are some photos of the house taken during the last week.
