Renovations

As many of you know, my Father is unable to sit still. So...Here is his latest project. (These are renovations made to our family room.)
Step 1: Pull everything off the wall including the ledge that used to be on the fire place!!!
Step 2: Put cabinets into the wall, sand, stain, polyurethene, get high, freeze because we can't close the door. ETC!! And enjoy christmas!
Step 3: Get a 55 inch TV and mount it to the wall. And Get cable!
Step 4: Wire for surround sound and then take a step back and look at your work!!
Step 5: Decided that you want to put a mantle up on the fireplace. Also because you can't sit still!
Step 6: Sit back and watch a very clear, very loud, very intense game of Football. Barf. I personally have fallen in love with the food network!

Food Network and HGTV(55) - don't let you dad watch it - it's all about renovating and decorating - I'm soooo addicted! Used to be addicted to Food Network, but have to say, switched over to HGTV.

Had a GREAT time with you today! Thanks for being my friend!!!!
