Carpet, Countertops, Plumbing & Light Fixtures - May 30th

Day 94 Paint and Cabinets - May 16th

Big Scare

Yesterday we had a big scare.  We had to go pick new carpet because the carpet we picked was no longer available.  But that's not the scare part.  After we spent an hour trying to pick out carpet, we went to our house where they had started painting.  As I walked in the door, I was scared, very scared.  Our paint looked pink, coral, flesh colored, even Barbie flesh colored.  We were mortified.  It was like we'd moved back to St. George.  I even called our neighbor and had her come look and she could see what we saw.  We immediately called Karen, the lady who helps us, to tell her what we found and that we HAD to change it.  This morning she called and luckily it was only the primer.  However, we'll found out hopefully today what our real color is.  I asked them to put some splashes on the wall to help us see what it will be like before they actually paint tomorrow.  Oh, talk about stress for 12 hours!!

Hopefully we'll have some pictures of our pretty walls soon.

We also have a tenative week to be in our house--about the 2nd week of June--Hooray!!!

**Thank you Christopher and Emily for bringing us our appliances.  We're excited to get them in there and be in our house.  We enjoyed having you here and hope that Christopher has gotten some sleep.

The finish work continues - Apr 29th

Kitchen laminate done - Apr 21st

They finished our kitchen floor.  It's going really slow.  Nothing has been done since.  Hopefully the finish work will start soon.

We have Tile - Apr 17th

The inside continues... Apr 15th

Tuesday, we went to see if they had textured anything yet, and they had basically the whole house except about 4 walls in the living room and kitchen area. So that should be done by now. We also found our tile in the garage waiting to be installed. Yesterday we didn't visit, but will probably today. I also included a pict of the exterior of our house. Our siding is interesting, depending on the sky, it looks more brown or more gray. Kind of cool, we think.

Day 59 the exterior is mostly finished - Apr 11th

The exterior (brick, trim, siding, and roof) of the house is finished.  There will be a few accents (paint, column and shutters) that will be added later.    The taping and mudding process are coming along.

The Basement - Apr 10th

The Brick! - Apr 8th

The brick before and after.

The Sheetrock is done! - Apr 8th

We stopped by on Saturday Apr 5th to visit the house and found all of the sheetrock completed. It only took a day and a half to Rock the house. Wow, these guys are fast! They are also close to completing the Brick. As we were taking these pictures, the sheetrock was being taped, 7:40pm on tuesday night.

I Think everyone must of showed up to work today - Apr 4th

We have a new front porch.

We were shocked to see almost everything sheet-rocked all in one day.

We also got our back patio, it was amazing how much was accomplished today.
