October 15th!


So, we are 1/2 way through the month of October. Here are some shots I got as I walked around through the house last night. Ryan came in to work on the floor over the week-end and new Ryan stayed late last night to work on the backsplash tile. These guys are busting their behinds and it shows. Everything is looking amazing. Robbie got the doors painted in the last couple of days and they are being hung. They look beautiful. More light fixtures are going up and there is still constant touch ups for the paint. 

The office is probably the closest to being completed. It was the first room to get the flooring in and  does it ever look good. The closet is getting more shelves added right now, the bathroom still needs a sink, toilet, lights, and a mirror. The exterior door needs paint, the outlets are being replaced and we are contemplating installing quarter-round to the bottom of the baseboards. But it's mainly just small details left!


















































The kitchen is further along than it looks. All the appliances are out in the garage, the countertops are done and the backsplash and floor are in. They still need to paint the cabinet fronts, modify some of the cabinets, install the appliances and paint that brick backsplash...and of course 100 other little things.
























Here is a close-up of the backsplash. It is brick pavers that we are gonna paint white. Of course the guys (including my hubbie) think we should leave it like it is. Oh boys...
























Another shot of the kitchen. Did you notice they installed the light pendent off center AND crooked? No?
























How about now?



It was Robbie's idea to extend the brick backsplash around the kitchen under the breakfast bar. I love it!
























Here's how the living room is looking. Floor 1/2 way done!

























I didn't get one of the dining room. They have it full to the brim with scaffolding and saw horses right now with doors drying on all of them. It's hard enough to walk around in there much less find a spot to catch a photo. But the doors look amazing with a coat of shiny white paint on them! I did get a picture of the entry way. Remember when they tore out the tile that they weren't supposed to? And remember how it tore up the concrete foundation? Well, after 38 or so bags of filler, they have it all smooth again...
























Here's the living room from the entry...

Here's the boys room...G.'s room looks about the same but with no light fixture. It arrived today!
























And here is the update on the hall bath...it is tied with the office for my favorite room...as of today anyway. :)

The siding looks amazing!


And so does the marble. We are still waiting on the marble shelves to be cut...but I love how the floor turned out.




































So, think they can be done in the next two weeks? :)
