Our Little House on The Prairie: Sept 19 - 23

So much stuff was done this week...it was hard to remember what was finished by the time Friday rolled around. We are definitely in the home stretch now...

Master bath shower

Ceiling fans in the master bedroom, kids' room, great room and playroom.

MUCH better!

We even had to do a little remodeling this week. There was a cabinet issue that only gave us 20 some inches between the end of the breakfast bar and wall of cabinets with the cook top and microwave. Long (and stressful/emotional at times) story short... they had to move all of the pendent lights which required cutting out the plaster. I'll admit that I wanted to puke at the thought but it's all fixed now and we can move on...

Kitchen Lights

I've never been so excited to see WORKING lights!

Praise the Lord for a banister! My wonderful son nearly gave me a heart attack every time he came near the open stairs.

Front porch! All ready for pumpkins!!

Dinning room columns and light (which will be lower once construction work is done)

Appliances!!

Friday must have been clean and organize day!

Outside lights!

Living room furniture!

Up next: touch-up painting, more lights, gutters, and plumbing work. I just realized a few days ago that we don't have toilets. Ah, the minor details!

Our Little House on The Prairie: Sept 12 - 16

It was an exciting week! The week kicked off with tile in the kitchen and master bath. I just realized I got so excited about everything else that I never took a good picture of the floor! The week ended with cabinets...and a few extras, too!
