A Busy Week!

Matt and I were hoping we'd be farther along by now, but, alas, things are still coming along. Our friend Blake got the soffit and fascia finished last week and I love having the porch finished! We put in the rest of the lights and are working on finishing up the rock. Hopefully tomorrow we will have all the rock grouted, cleaned, and sealed!

The gas company FINALLY came out and connected our gas!

Blake finished the siding too (he is awesome). Now we can call Dan to come over to paint the outside of the house. It will really start looking finished when it is painted!

Now that the electrical is all tied up, the power company needs to come over and officially connect the power to the house. We have been running on temporary power since January.

Doesn't it look great! Not! I can't wait until this hideous thing is gone!

BEST NEWS OF THE WEEK! THE CABINETS WERE INSTALLED! Honestly the pictures do not do justice to the cabinets. I am so glad we went through Timber Wolf (Matt works for the owner Jon Call sometimes). Everything is such high quality. The detail is incredible. I'll have to take some close up pictures. The pictures don't really do justice to the color either. The flash on my camera made them look more yellow than they really are. You'll have to just come over for the full effect!

Kitchen cabinets. We love them!

Desk. Such a great decision. We were originally going to put in a railing, and then thought about a half bookshelf, and finally landed on the desk. Thank you Todd for the great idea.

Guest bathroom.

Master bath.

Mudroom. The washer and dryer will go below the cabinets.

As you can see, it's been a very good week for us.

*Update! Our power has now been connected! Almost everything works... All the outlets are wired right, and so are all the lights, except for the lights in the bedrooms. For some reason, there is a weird problem tripping the power in that circuit. Hopefully Matt can get it figured out soon. Pictures to come!
