Daddy made a big door

Well, we owned this house for ten weeks before tearing down a wall. It was so fun and exciting that we had to stop ourselves from attacking another one! So here it is, the first step in reviving this old sixties ranch.

BEFORE

Here is the original den, complete with some of the old stuff
that was in the house when we bought it.

And here is the original breakfast area between the
kitchen and den.

AFTER

Happy to see the wall go,
but kinda sad to lose the pocket door.

More room to run!

Next step... painting the panelling and, yes, the pink kitchen... and possibly opening up another wall somewhere. So now that we have caught the project bug again, we revisited another old pastime: going to Home Depot on a Saturday night. As if that wasn't bad enough, this is how our poor child was dressed:

Yes, she is wearing a diaper, a sweatshirt and sneakers.
