Exterior...(basically) done!

Mark and I were talking the other day about how in the world we are going to do this remodel.  It is going to greatly effect all three bedrooms and our kitchen...and most stuff needs to happen simultaneously.  So, this is what we decided on...

1 - We will enclose the side patio (new part of master suite).
2 - We will begin working on the new hallway to our master suite (which also will add the new wall in wood room). Once new wood room wall is done (oh, and sheetrocking that room and putting in the new closet doors), we will move into the new "I'm not wood anymore!" room.
3 - Demo will begin on the master suite (finishing the hallway opening, tearing down the wall between the existing room and the patio and ... a bunch of other stuff including closing off the stairs and putting a header in the ceiling for a support wall that will halfway come down).
4 - The new wall will go up, separating the existing dining nook from the kitchen.
5 - Demo and new stairs and new bedroom wall will be put in the other bedroom and that hallway extended in doing those things.
6 - Finish the master suite (including new bathroom) and the "new stairs" bedroom.
7 - Move into my new beautiful master suite!
8 - Demo kitchen.
9 - Beautify and finish kitchen.
10 - Renovate hallway bathroom.
11 - RELAX!

Not so bad, eh? (But remember, plans can and certainly will change!)

Anyway, this is where we're at so far:

Phase 1: Master Bedroom Extension
Part 1: Enclosing patio
Status: Done!





By the way...see how sunny it is!?! Not normal for Christmas time around here!  I'm not complaining, though. (What made his really easy were two things: the patio being an extension of the foundation and the roofline already in place. If those two things didn't happen, we would not have thought about doing this.)
