Getting everything out of the way!

After much pain and suffering, the renovation of our home, has begun. Laura and her cousin Robin spent three hard days Monday Tuesday and Wednesday last week packing up everything from our master bedroom closet, master bathroom and master bedroom.

Thursday morning with the help of some friends from church everything was moved into a POD that is now residing in our driveway along with a dumpster and the porta-potty!

The contractor has wasted no time in getting everything demo'd!! Sometimes, Laura is frantic because he is working faster than she can get things done. Now, everything is successfully out of the bathroom area. We also have a major hole in the garage where the elevator pit will be. Here are a few pictures of what has been done:

One of the best parts of the project for Laura,
is that the bathtub which she hated is gone!
This area used to be the linen closet,
shower entrance and part of our closet.
A couple of pipes in the way
of the elevator that have to be moved.
The hole for the elevator pit, it worked out very well
since everything that had to be dug was a gravel.

  1. This is going to be so awesome when it's all done! I know it'll feel good to move back into the home you've known and loved for the last, what, 12 years? I look forward to staying up to date on the latest and greatest!

  2. Laura - can I borrow the contractor long enough for him to take out my bathtub too? I hate it.

    Best to you both.
