Basement Before....(notice the "warmth"???)
Basement After...notice the "warmth" now??? :)
When you build a house the last room that you want to worry about is the basement. We planned to one day finish it, but when we built we decided that we would just make it a big game room with dark gray colored concrete floors. So, that's what we did for the last 1.5 years. The guest room upstairs has really only been used my parents when they come to visit because I promised they would always have a room. Well, things change when you have a baby on the way. The plan has always been that the guest room would someday become a nursery and the basement would turn into the game/guest room. We (Shane again...poor guy) made that happen. With the help of his dad, they laid the dark cherry hardwood floors and Shane installed the trim around the room and the windows. It looks amazing! I think my parents will be very excited to sleep down in this "warm" basement instead of the "cold" cell like room it was before. Mom and Pops we look forward to you trying out your new room in just a couple of weeks - when Baby Green arrives!!! But, try to keep off the air hockey table and foos ball table in the middle of the night :)

That looks fantastic! Shane did a great job. Isn't it so nice to have a handy hubbie! I need to wrap up a few projects so I can post "after shots."
it turned out awesome!
Off the subject of your beautiful basement... Do you plan to watch the new 90210 tonight?! :)
OMG Lori, I am so watching 90210 tonight. I can't wait :) Shane said that he and Baker would leave the house because he knows that I will be worthless. I hope it is just as good as the original. I might just have to discuss my thoughts tonight after the show :)
