Our latest project!

So this afternoon around 3:00 Dusty looks at me and says, "What you want to do today?"  and I said, "Knock out the kitchen wall?"  So we did.  When we moved into our new house there were two walls that I thought didn't need to be there.  In our kitchen there was once a large picture window that looked out onto the backyard, when the previous owners build a sun room onto the house they closed in the window and doing so eliminated all light.  I LOVE sunlight pouring into our home, so when we moved in I was very persistent that the wall had to go.  Today we were able to knock out all the sheet rock and pull up the baseboards.  If you've ever worked with sheet rock you know it makes a HORRIBLE mess, so we took a break and cleaned up what we had done so far.  Then we went to Lowe's to get our supplies.  Since the sun room has a separate heating/cooling unit we wanted to be able to close it off in the dead heat of summer or the bitter cold of winter.  We decided to get double open french doors!  I am SO excited to get them put up, I think they are going to look great!  We are taking lots of pictures, but I don't want to post before until we have after.  It is taking all the strength I have to go to bed with such a mess still in the house.  I even mopped the kitchen floor, and Dusty just looked at me like, don't you think we are probably going to make another mess tomorrow.  Oh well.  Stay tuned for more home improvement updates.
