This spring we started the huge project of finising our basement. We were so excited to get it done and knew it was going to be a big job. I don't think we realized how glad we were going to be when we were finally done with the non-stop projects. It was so time consuming when you do it all yourself. In the end, it was worth all the hard work. We had a lot of good help which we couldn't have done it without them. It led from just painting the downstairs to also paiting most of the upstairs and cleaning the carpets. We still have a few projects to finish up but for the most part we are enjoying more living space in our house.
A long view of the family room. We don't really have anything in it yet but it is nice to have extra room for the kids to play in.
Hannah's room. She wanted it bright and bold and I think she got her wish. I love the way it turned out. We still have a lot of areas to decorate but it is such a big room it will have to be in phases. She is loving have the space to herself and everyone is sleeping better in the end with Chloe now having her own room also.
Hayden wanted a football room which also turned into a sports related theme. We still have some decorating to do but he is loving his new space also.
The bathroom ended up great also. I love that they can both have their own sink and space. If only we could get the towel racks and toilet paper holder up, we would be fninshed. Who wants to get to the little jobs now - we are playing too much for summer break! Maybe by Christmas we will be able to say everything is completely finished.
