A work in progress

We closed on our old house the beginning of June and moved in with my in-laws to begin working on our new house.  Projects always take longer than planned, but we are hoping to start moving into our house this weekend.  We still have work to do, but I am getting anxious to see my furniture and dishes again.  

Thus far we have: 

taken up flooring

scraped ceilings

removed wallpaper

put up bead board

textured

painted

taken out a wall and added doors

replaced doors

painted a bit more

tiled

replaced appliances

had countertops installed

We still have to:

paint the utility room, master bedroom and master bathroom

have flooring installed and carpet laid... in progress

replace light fixtures

install canned lighting

paint the outside

trim trees and bushes

replace windows

We are on the homestretch.  

The home is slowly beginning to have appeal and we are really excited to move in and make it our own.  It's been a fun, busy, encouraging, discouraging, crazy project.  

...summing up the summer of 09'.
