Our first house project!

So Scott and I finally decided to tackle our ugly dark green bathroom. We haven't liked it since we moved in but we just haven't been motivated to do anything about it. Finally one day I decided to take everything down and out of the bathroom and to start priming. Well we had a few surprises when I started taking down lights and cabinets and such. The paint started to come off like wall paper so I just went with it. Then behind some of the paint/wall paper I found two big holes in the wall that the previous owners tried to cover up with masking tape and spackle. Not the greatest idea!! We also found a little bit of mold and some other little things. So we decided to replace the sheet rock to repair all of our wonderful surprises! We are just now getting all the paint off the walls and are about to start ripping out the old sheet rock. This will be fun and exciting seeing that we have never done anything like this before!! Here are some "in the process" pictures. I will post some more as we continue the project.
