A month later...

A month passed by since the remodeling started. Now we found ourselves isolated from the job site. A temporary wall was constructed between the living room and the dining room which blocks us off from the construction site. At the moment we are camping inside the "livable" area of the house. The last time I remembered camping was when I was in my teens. Trust me, a very long time ago and I definitely don't miss the experience!

Let me show you the updates on the construction. Now we have the frame up for the new addition and the kitchen looks huge! The new size of the dining room will allow us to have more sitting room during a meal. I am getting a pantry (my dream comes true!) and the laundry room will even have a slop sink (God knows how handy it is to have one of those!) as well as a counter where I can fold the laundry and a hidden ironing board that pulls out of the wall.

A few weeks later and the walls are up!

Last week my husband and I went away for a few days. When we came back on Sunday, we were shocked by all the work that was done.
Now that the walls are up we found out that wherever we stand in the new kitchen we have a view of the backyard and not the neighbor's bedroom. What do you think so far?
