Mom, Can We Live Here Now?

This is the question my 7 year old asked after seeing that all of the cabinets in the house had been installed. Silly girl!!! They ask when we are going to move in ALL OF THE TIME!!!! I have to admit, I am just as excited as they are.

As promised, here are the pictures of the finished cabinets. Enjoy!!!!

All Trimmed Up

The tile in the master bathroom is complete so we have now moved on to the trim work, which consists of baseboards, closet layouts, pantry shelves and cabinet installation. Cabinet delivery was delayed a day so the trim work began a day late. Upon inspection of the cabinets, we discovered they had been built for 10ft ceilings; we have 9ft ceilings. So the cabinet guys came and picked up the upper kitchen cabinets, about 4-6, and took them to be redone. As of yesterday, the cabinets were being installed, the chalkboard area had been framed in, lockers in the mud room were completed and the windowsills and baseboards were all finished. Today they should be working on the closet shelving. They have a lot of their tools and wood in the house so it is hard to take pictures. But as soon as they are finished I will let everyone see.

More Pictures

When I posted yesterday I only put up the pictures from my video camera because my phone would not cooperate and let me download pictures to my computer. My son, somehow, figured it out today(he's 15 months!!!!). So here are a few more pics to look at.

The tile is almost done. They mis-measured and had to order more so it may be finished next week. Next up: Trim and Cabinets!!!!!

6 More Weeks

Hello all!!!! August got a little crazy on us. We went on vacation and the girls are now back in school. Things are moving along nicely on the Lane. The brick work has been completed. Insulation, sheet rock and texture were finished middle of August. Our front and back porches, sidewalks and driveway were poured a couple of weeks ago.

The new front door was put in Tuesday, as well as the master bathtub. Tile also started in the master shower that day.

Tile should be completed this week. Cabinets and trim will be started next week and paint will be the week after that. As soon as we give Todd our choice of stone(hopefully tonight), they will set the posts on the front and back porches. We have been told 6 more weeks, which puts us moving in sometime in October.
