Getting Closer

This week has been a rough one. Monday, no one came to work on the house. Tuesday I was so excited when the cabinet guys showed up, but they only dropped off some of our cabinets. Wednesday our 3 back ordered doors and the wood for around the doors and baseboards came. That night and early the next morning the painters stained and sealed the doors and wood. Thursday, the contractor came for about an hour and was driven out by the smell of the stain and sealer. The electriction came and told us to have all our light ready to be installed on Monday. We were both so discouraged. Robert kept saying there was no way that we would be in the end of next week.

Friday I asked the contractor when I could have the appliances delivered. (Home Depot had called and asked when they could deliver them.) He said to have them delivered on Monday (26th) so they could install them as the put the cabinets in. Friday our house was almost filled, three of the contractors, the tile guy, and the cabinet guys (they just dropped off more cabinets) were at the house.
Well here are some pics of what is going on here.


Here is the hallway going into the laundry/wash room. They have the molding around the door and the baseboards in.

Here is our pantry door......I love it.



This is our walk in shower. I hope it isn't too dark to see, because it is so pretty. Robert says it is HIS shower, I told I am sharing with him cause I can't remember the last time I got in the tub.


The same trim is around our tub.

These are the closet doors that are in both guest bedrooms.


We just love our doors. These are going left to right. The front closet, bedroom and bathroom.

This is what our cabinets look like now!


I just pulled one cabinet out to see the front. We are so excited.
Our house will be full tomorrow. The Contractors (3), the tile guy, the electriction, the plumbers, hopefully the stucco and rock guys will be there too. Our house is coming together. Then we will have to make it a HOME.

PS Sorry about the pics. They are so dark. After tomorrow,Maybe, we will have lights that we can turn on.

Catching up again

I finally got pictures of our painted walls,cupboards,closets and an unexpected guest.


This is our pantry, the door is back ordered, but could be here this week.


This is a pic of one wall in our walk-in closet. As you go into the closet this is on the right hand side. The back wall will have double rods for shirts and pants. The left side of the closet will have a section for dresses and more double rods. As you walk in on the left side will be a board with pegs for hanging what ever.

Robert is checking out the paint in the entrance way. It passed his inspection.

This is our unexpected guest. This has been a crazy year, I have seen several of them.
Ok this is the most beautiful part of our house so far. The rock work is almost done! The guys ran our of rock and needed to order more rock, but here is the front porch. We just love it.
As a side note: after church and on the way to the barn I was looking at the mountains and clouds. These are the Tushar Mountains.........there is snow on the mountains. Yuck!

Progress

The inside of our house is all painted, we chose Emily's Expression (there is a hint of yellow in it). I only have a pic of the garage. (Am I a slacker or what?)



Oops you can't tell the color, but this is Robert and Maggie in the garage.
The shelves are finished in all the closets they are painted, but not in these pics.


This is one of the linen closets.


This is the coat closet.

I took pictures of our walk in closet, but it was too dark to see anything. Need to work on that.
It is really looking great inside the house. The floor guys should be here this week and our cabinets next week.
The outside of the house is beautiful. I took this picture yesterday morning. It is so awesome to watch the workers find just the right pieces to put the rock together, like a puzzle.

Of course I didn't take a pic tonight but this is what it looked like this morning.

Robert talked to the contractor again today, he reassured him that we would be in the house by the 1st. Oh Yeah!
