We are well on our way to finishing our house renovations. Thanks to Devry's cousin Scott!! He sheetrocked, mudded, taped, sanded and textured everything!! Not to mention all the problem solving and improvising he had to do. He did an AMAZING job! His part of the work is just about done...and ours (and by ours, I mostly mean Devry's) is about to begin! We will start priming and painting everything next week, and then hopefully get the laminant floor layed. The new carpet will have to wait a bit until Devry's dad can come help us with it. I can't wait till its done! Here are some pictures before and after pictures of what has been done so far.
These are pictures of the nursery. Here is when we first started. The carpet was being pulled up and I realized I hadn't taken a before picture.
nursery After the carpet and trim has been removed.
The Nursery Now. All sheetrocked, and textured. It is going to look sooo good!!!
While Im on the topic of the nursery I thought I would post a picture of the crib bedding I got in the mail two days ago! We bought it on ebay for 1/4 of what it costs! It is so cute and will go with the room so well!.
I will be painting the top half of the nursery the medium color blue from the bedding, and then the bottom part with the darker blue color. I'll use brown as accent in the room. Im soo excited to see it finished!!
Here is the archway Scott build between the kitchen and the family room. It looks so much different! We love it.
Sheetrocked and textured. The windows are gone!
The archway from the other side. The family room now.
This is the family room before any of the new sheet rock went up. 
This is the front room before we started.

The same view now. It looks completely different!!
I can't wait to see everything painted and new floors. School is out for the semester and we are enjoying a small break! We are headed to utah this weekend to visit friends and family and shop for baby stuff. I can't beleive rexburg doesn't have a babies R US. Oh well it gives us an excuse to take a trip. I'll post pictures again when everything is done.
