May 20: It's Coming Together

There have been workers from all trades busy inside and outside the house this past week, which translates into lots of progress (which is good thing since we have to be out of our rental and back in our new house in five weeks).

Finally picked a paint color... back of the house painted today.

The boxes of fixtures, fans, lights, etc. are starting to pile up in the rental.
 

May 13: The Yard is Bald

Nate was pretty accurate when I got home from work and he told me the yard was bald. With the help of a tractor, in just a few hours they scraped away the yard, hedges, fence and some trees to make way for the new hard/landscape.

May 4: Over-thinking Paint

Things are coming together: drywalling is complete, ceiling work is just about finished, floors have been selected, and exterior and interior painting will begin this week. 


After weeks of looking at floor samples, we finally landed on the right one.


New skylight in the entry way.
Yep, that's 12 options so far...
And the same goes for the interior...
Libby is completely over the paint decision...
Sofie and Jenna deciding on the right blue for her room...
