It is finished....

.....for now that is.  Remember back in June we had major rains which flooded our basement while we were gone in St. Louis one weekend.....

And just one week ago ( nearly a 3 month span) we were finally able to put everything back together and call it a "usable" basement again. We put in a new kitchen floor and I repainted pretty much everything down there.  It feels so nice to have it back for now.......

 Ours hopes and dreams are to put in a kitchen on the right side of the above picture.  We found a fridge on a garage sale and we hope to install cabinets/counter, sink, and an oven this winter.
