Just Amazing!

The main floor drywall is DONE!  By 10:30 this morning the guys were finished up and outta there!  What a RELIEF to have this done.  Yes, we could have saved some money by doing it ourselves...but there is no way on earth that we would have had the entire 1700 sq. ft. main floor done in less than 2 days!!  That is crazy!

Finally it's starting to look like a house again!

There is a reason that one wall is still studs  :)  
Don't worry...I've got a plan (mwa, ha, ha!)

Oh..I just love drywall, lol...


I just can't believe how different it looks...and it's only going to get better



We're taking tomorrow off for my Cousin's Wedding...then it's back at it!

Drywall Time!

The day has finally come!  We went to get the drywall late this afternoon so that we'd be ready for the drywall hanging guys tomorrow....I can't wait to see what a difference it makes to have the drywall up!  I couldn't believe how HEAVY the loads of drywall were.  We DID get the help of the Harmans again...Mike & Johnny went with us to pick it up...this way we had 2 trailers to bring it back with...and we filled them both to the brim!  Well...I guess there's no BRIM on a trailer...so let's just say we filled them to the MAXIMUM WEIGHT CAPACITY!!  It was interesting to say the least!

Oh and one more thing....WHY IS IT SO HOT OUTSIDE???  lol.

Here's the load we had with our truck....notice that they had to stack pallets so they could get the drywall up high enough over the wheel wells, lol.

Here's the load Mike had on his truck...(and Carl Becker...how did he end up helping unload drywall??  I thought he just came over to Mom & Dad's for dinner, lol!!)

two wide of course....his truck could pull more than ours could!

It's in the house!!  Yeah!  

11 buckets of drywall mud...do you think that will be enough?

Thanks so much to Mike, Jeff & Johnny Harman for all of your help delivering and moving in drywall....your muscles are greatly appreciated  :)  Also thanks to Kade, Dad & Carl!

DRYWALL STARTS TOMORROW!!!   CAN'T WAIT!!!
