The House of Renovation

The House of Rock received a thorough dose of renovation this weekend. Jesse and I put in a ton of work Saturday night and purchased all sorts of goods from Home Depot to prep for Sun.

Sunday, Tony, Paulette, and Shaun L. came over and graciously offered some of their time to us. Without them, we never would have finished what we did. Thanks guys!

A few of the key accomplishments:

We now have light above the stove. For 2 years we have not had light here, and finally the electrical work was finished to get things working again. The kitchen is now extremely bright.
Let there be light!

The game room was transformed into a dining room. We painted the walls a coral color, cleaned the carpet, and reorganized the furniture for a bit more of a mature look. We’re pleased with the result.
game room no more

Other less photographic accomplishments were leaky faucet fixings, toilet replacements, trim installation, floor cleaning, and door creation. It was intense.

Now, it’s 9:20pm on Sunday and I’m toast. I’ll be heading to bed now, so that I can hit a 6:40am flight on Southwest tomorrow.

Destination: Texas.

    Wait a minute. I’m confused. I thought the House of Rock was being sold, or moved, or something along those lines. Is this a new House of Rock, or a pre-sale fix-up?

    Is this the same room that used to have all of the movie posters and the blow-dart gun target thing?

    I like the placement of the fire extinguisher in the picture of the kitchen. Its easier easier to access than all the kitchen utensils sitting behind it.
