Josh is Demolition Man

The basement overhaul has officially begun! Josh has taken great joy in trashing our basement and getting all the nasty fake wood paneling and such out of there. He has hired someone to help him refinish everything and they have gotten right into it. Literally, the day Jamie (our contractor) came over to look at the space, they talked for about an hour and jumped right in. So, the basement has been almost completely gutted out. I mean, we are tearing out walls and starting from scratch. Hopefully we can add a bathroom and a finished laundry room down there, which would be absolutely awesome. I know at least there will be a play room/family room area for the kids, an office for Josh and a little workspace for my "crafty" things. It will be soooo nice to have that area livable, but not so sure what we are going to do for storage now...guess we better get rid of some stuff. Here is the first installment of pictures, I'll have more soon since the giant, and I mean giant, trash container got her today. Monday, the waterproofing men are coming to start their part. Stay tuned...
