Latest House Project

So 1 thing we didn't like about our house was that there wasn't a living room that opened up to the kitchen. We have a front formal living room but you can't see our kitchen from it, then we have a bedroon right off the kitchen that we've always had as an informal living room or family room. So just before Christmas Cody decided to start a new project- tearing out part of the wall from the family room to open it up to our kitchen.

This past Saturday we finally got one of the hard parts over with. We had to put a beam in the wall, up near the ceiling because the wall is a load bearing wall. A good friend of ours from our old neighborhood came over to help us.

And now it looks like this. We think we want to put french doors on so we still have the option of closing to room off if we want.
