Family Room Remodel

So as some of you may know, our house has been in complete disarray since early April as we were redoing the family room.  Now we knew when buying the house almost 3 years ago, it was pretty much updated with exception of the family room.  It was completely functional, yet out of date so we decided that in the near future we would make the investment. 
Year 1 we added a patio
Year 2 we had a baby
Year 3 we remodeled family room.

Here are the BEFORE pictures:
My biggest issues were the cosmetic beams on the ceiling, detailing above the book shelves, outdated bookshelves and mantle and UGLY carpet.
We were going to redo bookshelves and leave carpet and update that later, but decided to scrap bookshelves as we actually don't need the storage and updated carpet instead. 



I seriously disliked these posts and on a couple days almost knocked them out myself.




Mid-Construction: removed paneling, beams, bookshelves


Removed the posts (Thanks goodness!)

With updated carpet in both the family room and back room to add alittle consistency to flow of downstairs.

Ta-Da...


So a couple of canned lights were added to assist with brightening up room, removed paneling and added drywall, new fan installed, crown molding and window frames, paint, new carpet, new mantle, and new door to garage.
