The HOLE....

Ever since moving into my house I have been wishing & hoping to tear down or put a hole/pass thru/window in the wall between my kitchen & living room. Apparently tearing the wall down completely would be too complicated, so hole/pass thru/window it is! Well this weekend was the weekend... No game and nice weather. So my parents came up on Saturday and left about 24 hours later, wham bam thank you ma'am :)

Here is the wall before
We covered my furniture with a tarp larger than life. I may be able to use it later to fumigate my house... Seriously, so big!

Dad, aka Master Contractor, seeing exactly what he is getting himself into. I started to get nervous when the hammer started to swing, so my mom and I decided to go shopping for a bit, we were told to be gone for about an hour.

This is what we cam home to...

Along with this... a whole lot of dust. This is the outline of my camera on my dining room table that we forgot to cover.

More progress. Taped & mudded up

Painting

Trim going up.

And the last piece. And my mom is sweeping my floor for like the 10th time

ALL DONE!!

I love being able to cook & watch TV :)

Toasting to a job well done!

Thanks for the awesome new addition to my house Mom & Dad! You two are the best! Love you!
