The Basement

We are finally moved in and getting settled. We have jumped in with both feet and embarked on our  biggest project yet, finishing our 2200 sq. ft. basement.

There are going to be two more bedrooms, one will be Ryan's room and the other my craft room.
We are also putting in my "hair salon" room which will be just like a salon with the chair/sink for washing hair as well as the chair for styling. With three girls here I needed a designated room for the hours I'm going to log doing hair.

We will also have a great room where everyone can gather for television watching, game playing, etc. And finally a full bathroom and an unfinished storage room.

I thought it would be a fun project to document via pictures the progress. Since this will be an 8-10 week process I will update every Wednesday with the weeks progress.
