Felt Family Remodel - Part Deux

So I just wanted to show off the latest round of pictures of the progress we've made at the Felt place -

It should be noted that this work was all done over the July 4th weekend... Yup... Dedication, homes...

This is Matt taking off the old door - you can't really get a good sense of the door, but if you look at it (the old door, that is) and start thinking "Man, this door really doesn't belong on a house, yet there's something fitting and familiar about it..." that's because we've all seen them before... on portable classrooms...

This is the new door... much much improved... and that's also Paul's big fat head in the way...


We also reframed most of the windows today... we took out the ones (yes, plural) that were leaking and replaced them, re-caulked them and then expanded caulked them... This is Ryan doing what his very vast technical expertise allows him to do... scrape caulk off the old windows...


This is the result of Joe and Ryan's caulkjob - see how it's all messy and spread around - apparently they don't aim right with their caulk, they just leave it to go all over the place, which we'll have to come and clean up later... although once that caulk gets on something, it's never really the same...


And this is the expanding foam that we used to seal the windows from the inside... it's like Slimer's special caulk...

We finished replacing both the bedroom floors...

And the kitchen floors, minus the part where the plumbing has to be moved to make the new and exciting kitchen from which Kellie will cook many delicious meals for vagrant, umarried friends...


And this was all Tim (Kellie's dad) - he framed in an entire bathroom  and closet in Taylor's room all by himself - and when I say all by himself, that's exactly what I mean - according to him he's going to make sure Taylor's room is the best in the house, and I believe him...

So next steps are basically kitchen, plumbing, bathroom, then its the easy stuff like floors and sheetrock - its coming along!!
