The New Room!

Here are a few shots from the various stages we've been through to get our new room! This first one is what one half of our garage looked like before they began.

And here are some early framing stages. In order to do this properly (ie. obtain the proper building permits), we had to have the floor engineered to raise it up level with the rest of the house. You can't see it in the photo, but they drilled through the concrete floor to install a concrete column and rebar.

That's Matt & Jon - the two guys who did the work for us. Through the framing, you can barely see the new door that they busted out from the laundry room.

Here we are inside at the insulation phase...

...and sheetrock phase.

It's looking like a room!

And here's the new occupant... a very triumphant Maddox running circles over his soft new carpet!

That's the same carpet we'll be getting throughout the rest of our upper floor in a couple of weeks. Goodbye to all that BLUE!
