Remodeling the Den - "Before" Series

On October 8th, we began a big remodeling project- our den! We are completely re-doing everything. The guys were here just 5 days, and in that time they removed the old wood burning stove, tore off the wall paneling, fixed the roof and ceiling, etc. Now we are in the process of painting (celing, brick wall, everything). Sometime next week, our new windows and trim will be installed. And then new carpet will be laid. We are also having an old sleeper sofa freshly padded and upholstered. And we have ordered a new computer desk. So in 2-3 weeks, it should all be finished! For now, here are some "before" photos, and we look forward to presenting photos of the completed room very soon.
Here is the very retro sleeper:


Here is the room on the first day of the project, before demolition:

Here's our team of talented contractors:


Morgan soaked it all in...


...and enjoyed some coloring on the protective paper...


...while Emma supervised.


Later, he helped his Daddy paint.
