The rear bedroom walls are down, I've shown the progress starting with what was originally there:
After we removed all the walls and floors, we raised the roof 3 ft. We did this with a series of 20 ton jacks, some 4x4 posts over about a week. I was a bit terrified that something was going to snap and the roof would cave in. Nonetheless, we're done with raising the roof.
