Gentlemen - Wield Your Hammers!

Oh my gosh!! They have started!!! Our contractor has done the excavation for the new foot print, and has started 'de-construction' of the back side of our Northern Retirement State home to add a 500 sq ft addition that will turn the 4th bedroom, small dining area and kitchen on the flat back side of the house into a lovely great room, breakfast room and expanded kitchen with views of the park behind us and the beautiful mountains in the distance! This sure doesn't look like that big of an area - but it is!




Here's what the kitchen looked like a week ago -( these pictures were actually taken the day we bought the house)!




Now here's what it looked like yesterday!! Morning Glory went and took pictures for me! Is this neat or what!! They took all the cabinets out and put them in the garage for the time being. Then when the outside is put together they will bring them back in and reset them in a little different configuration!!
Anyone interested in a nice gas stove? I prefer electric and will be buying a new one when we get there.
The guy doing all the ripping apart was sure we'd be horrified at what we saw in the pictures she was taking - but she assured him it would be ok! This is soooo exciting!!

I stopped by there this afternoon after taking Jack to the MIL's to babysit. The RS trucks were there so I popped in. Major demo going on! And the new foot print is HUGE. Believe me, it's gloriously huge. Fun!
