In the spring of 2002 we contacted good friend, neighbor and designer, Melody Schumacher, about remodeling our 1966 tract house. The house had a spacious floor plan, with big bedrooms, but it was not quite what we needed. The kitchen was too small, there was no dining room and the boys were getting older and would soon need separate bed rooms. In the late summer of 2003 construction finally got under way. Most of the work was completed in time for us to enjoy Christmas 2003 in our newly remodeled home. Below is a series of pictures taken during the construction process.
