The Temporary Wall is Down

This past week saw the removal of the temporary wall. Now we can really start to see how the new room will fit in with the existing house. They also continued work on the kitchen - finishing the wiring, lighting and miscellaneous framing. The insulation is back in the exterior walls of the kitchen and the sheet rock will be added next week.

Our cabinets are also meant to arrive next week so once the sheet rock is complete the hanging of the cabinets will commence. Here are some updated pictures:

In the following picture you can see the half wall on the right side that will separate the fireplace room from the new room. A similar half wall will be built on the left side
