The Emperor's New Room

After months of waiting, our sunroom remodeling project is finally complete. Almost. The contractor still has a few loose ends to tie up but the room is pretty much as it's going to look. And our furniture arrived today also, 4 - 6 weeks early which might have caused a problem, but we were able to fit it all in the living room while the work was being completed, so it actually worked out nicely.
It looks really nice in there and I'm looking forward to relaxing in there this summer with a beer, a book and big black lab.
But the room's new look may preclude Mrs. Poop from allowing us to play beer pong out there during this September's 3rd (or is it 4th, I don't think the wedding counts) annual Poopfest. But by that point she'll be 8 months and 3 weeks pregnant so she probably won't even let me have the damn party anyway.


sofa and chair -- not pictured -- Ottoman. So there was a whole empire based on putting your feet up?
that ceiling fan is going to be key...it keeps it nice and cool in there but will it serve as an impediment to a beer pong game?
The shop foreman supervises the job. He is going to love it out there. In the summer he likes a cool surface under his belly, and sun on his back. Plus he can watch the neighborhood kids and dogs pass by and bark at them all

    Beer pong can always be played outside in the driveway if there is no room in the sunroom. And that way you won't have to worry about the fan.

    The fan makes a nice obstacle. Why would you destroy a perfect beer pong arena/room to build a sun room? House value smouse value. The room looks very nice guys.

    Outdoor beer pong is a fool's endeavor. The wind plays havoc with the ball taking the skill out of the game and making it all luck. Also there are no lights outside. And worst of all, when the ball touches the ground it would need to be disinfected. Fact is, this new flooring and furniture was Mrs. Poop's way of preventing us from playing beer pong. Which is ironic because without beer pong she and I probably never would have started dating.
