The CREW that made it possible

Remember this crazy girl who bought a "scary fixer upper" and decided to blog about it?
She's baaaaack!  Don't worry...I didn't buy another house....but I did think that it was about time I started blogging about it again.  (And maybe some other projects along the way!)
First I wanted to introduce you to my CREW (which stands for: people who put their blood sweat and possibly tears into my house and did not get paid a dime).  Also known as my demolition/cleaning/floor-scraping/carpentry/whatever asked helpers.  I know I didn't get a picture of my painting helpers....but maybe those will turn up as I dig through the past....
 
Not only did this girl learn at IUPUI...but her big sis got to teach her how to properly use a sledge hammer!
This young lady at heart always wanted to help and she always made me smile.
The two hot girls above know how to tear down walls...yeah that's right (and are available for hire).
 This lean mean working machine sure can scrape glue off a hardwood floor like no-body's business.
 This sweaty dude has been challenged beyond measure...just wait till you see the niches he has built for me!
She didn't obey the construction rules of NO open-toed shoes...but I did give her a swing with the sledge hammer since there was a rule that if you were onsite you can't just stand there and look pretty.
This awesome lady tackled mold with me....what more can I say?
 This strong girl battled itchy insulation...and a BIRD....but thats another story.
And of course my children....you didn't think I would let them get off scott free did you?

Read the posts below if you are new to my blog (or want to refresh your memory).  
And hopefully less than a 18 month lapse will happen before my next blog!
