look what we found ...

last night was another late one ... our goal originally was to rip the floor up and get the cement board down .... well the floor proved to be ridiculously hard to pull up .... so as you saw in the pics i decided to tear down walls too while i waited for matt's muscle to get home !

the weird thing was when we got through both layers of vinyl and sub floor we found hardwood floor ! i love it because it's the wider kind unlike the skinny stiff in the rest of our house ... but it got a little banged up in the sub floor removal process and our heart's kind of set on tile so we're still going that route ... here's a few pics of what the demo entailed ... sorry the pics are kind of hazy but it was dusty ! tiki kept a good eye on things and is the foreman of the project ...

This is our make-shift door, since we had to remove our swingy door, but leave passage for the pups ... to bad we didn't think of this until demo was half done as we have a very dusty rest of the house !

unfortunately i have to get back to work ... there's still a little around the edges that is proving very difficult to pull up .... next update will hopefully entail some cabinet tear down and the starts of the new floor with perhaps a sneak peak at the appliances !
