Progress made on day 1 demolition... and the hilarity of being stuck in a human fly trap!

First load to the dump after only one day!

I think this was to show the multiple layers of linoleum on the floor

You know how on reality home makeovers....they always find a "problem"?  Yeah that really happens.  Kitchen sink leaked down to the floor joists.

Bye-bye smelly carpet and leaky ceiling!

Before the floor started coming out.

I pulled up that linoleum and the floor was so sticky I could hardly walk!

Demolition, injury, and uh oh...

Day 1, 2, and 3 have flown by and it seems like we have made soooooo much progress, and still have so far to go!  We started demolition right away and ripped out flooring, appliances, a wood burning stove, and some cabinets.  The girls even got to help tear down a wall!  Unfortunately, the nail in the bottom of that darn wall ended up in the bottom of Reese's foot and we had an impromptu trip to the doctor.  Good thing she's a tough one and we got right back into it on day 2.  Here are some fun photos to show the rapidly changing interior.

Can't even demolish a wall without fighting!

Someone finally broke through!

See that stud in the middle?  It held the nail that did the damage...

Still smiling, even with a shot on the way!

Ch ch ch changes....

We have been back in Arkansas for just over two years and already have decided to move again.  We're staying close by this time and moving to a house with 5 acres.  The home is in need of remodel, but has a good foundation and a nice layout, but we have our work cut out for us.  Instead of inundating everyone with our before, during, and after posts, I've decided to put it all on our blog.  Hopefully I can keep up with it since I'm the worst blogger in the world! Here are some before pictures:
