Well,


Things are just moving way to fast for my taste. :)


This weekend Peter stained the floors. He only did one coat so we'll have to go back this weekend and do the process all over again! The cleaning part is the worst. As a matter of fact, I was SORE on Monday.


Monday morning the cabinets/shelves were put in. They messed up on the kitchen a bit. A few of the top cabinets are supposed to be "glass front." So, they'll go back and fix it. The stairs were also put in. Picture a classic look with stained steps and a white bannister. :) Very Pottery Barn/cottagey feel.


Yesterday they started putting the stone on the front and laying out the driveway!! I almost had a coronary when I saw all of this. I'm sure they were all laughing at me because I was just so excited!!!!! They were supposed to start painting the outside but due to the weather they are waiting till tomorrow or Friday. :) We're not yet set on the inside. For the most part we are, but there are some 'special' colors that I have yet to decide on.


Yesterday evening we decided on countertops for the kitchen. I didn't think I would choose granite but I ended up doing it!!!


Today I went over to unlock the doors and the trim, crown molding and doors were going up!


Again, freaked out. :)


So, here are some updated pics from yesterday. I couldn't take anymore because my camera died.


I'll post more soon!!!!!

the kitchen is always one of the best parts of a home, yours and Peter's is gonna be so nice, and you will be glad you chose granite. go ahead and be excited, I don't know a single guy who doesn't love that!

Kelby said...

Make sure you put toilet paper holders on the wall so you can wipe when you get done doing the business.

I want to build a house! someday maybe you can give me advice! Miss you and loves it!

Jessica and Matt said...

OMG! I am SO far behind on my blogstalking--I had NO IDEA you were this far along on your house!!! It was just the other day that you posted a picture of your empty lot. Wow!! I came across a website with pretty reasonable tub hardware, and I thought of your comment about spending as much on the hardware, as the tub itself cost. So it's faucetsuite.com... If you have a better one, let me know!

The house looks beautiful! I think ours are going to be fairly similar, so it's fun to see yours going together so nicely!
