The Project

Well, our renovation project is officially underway.  So far, there has demo (or as Matthew says, "those guys are breaking the house!") and the pouring of the footings.  For those of you who don't know what we're doing, we are expanding the basement by excavating a crawl space and underneath a terrace adjacent to the existing basement.  There will be a play/family room, a bathroom, and exercise room(!) and a mudroom in the finished basement.  The play/family room will open out at ground level to the backyard.  We are also bumping out to make one of our two garages wider, and then taking out the wall between the garages to make the whole thing into a real two-car garage.  Finally, we are doing a complete renovation of our master bath. 

I thought I'd post pictures and progress reports as we move along, although I fully recognize that this sort of thing can be incredibly boring and tedious for some people.  If that's you, I certainly will not be offended if you ignore all posts relating to the project!
