FIRE IN THE HOLE!!!

I got the fireplace hooked up this weekend. We lit it up this evening to enjoy all of the hard work that has gone into the project. It sure makes the living room look different.




Just don't ask to see the den side of the wall yet. It is going to be a built in entertainment center--but I have a long way to go.

A good afternoon.

The weather was just right. Sunny with a few clouds. Just a little breeze. The kids, dog, and I headed down to Ridgway for the afternoon. We had a great time, did a little (very little) fishing and cruised around the lake.





What happens when you ask for a fireplace and then go to work?


Daddy marks the hole, cuts the outline and then gives Jacob and Lilly each a hammer. . .






















The kids take turns swinging and smacking. . .















More swinging. . .




















One side of the wall is out.


















Crystal got home and there was a hole, from the living room into the den.
