A Few New Additions

It has been Jim's turn to be sick, so to get him some fresh air we stopped by the house the other night. We weren't expecting to find all the new fun additions. It is so much fun visiting and seeing all the new developments. This week they have been working on light fixtures, appliances, outlets, switches, and more! Here are a few new things done that we saw:

Please note the fancy, upgraded light fixture in the guest suite ;)

Tile, New Doors, & Oven

Lily and I went by today since Kim and Ella were not feeling well. We had to stop by the sales office to get a key. We were locked out of our own house! Turns out it was locked because the appliances were delivered (but not installed). I was able to get a picture of the oven in the box.

Also new this week is the tile backsplash in the kitchen, tile floor in the master bath, and new and improved doors for the office and guest bedroom.

Countertops!!!

I went by to check on something this morning, and was so excited to see we have kitchen countertops!!! They also came back and touched up the paint, so I tried to take some more pictures to show the color. Since we were expecting white white and having to paint immediately, this surprise color is wonderful. Now we will just have a few places to paint, but not anything we can't do on our own. Our upstairs bathroom countertops are in as well, so there are pictures of the guest and girls' bathroom. The master bathroom was getting tile installed so we couldn't get in there to take pictures, but we'll be back this weekend ;)

Discovery Place

We went back to visit Discovery Place with some friends! The girls had so much fun with Savannah and Gage! In fact, we had such a great time we are now members :) They are building another one minutes from our house that opens in October. I'm sure we will make good use of that membership!

1st Coat of Paint

We have been dying to get in and see what the house looks like painted, but it has been so stinky. Today it wasn't too bad, but the girls and I didn't last too long. Jim took a few pictures before the girls wore us down and we had to visit the playground :) Right now it's just the 1st coat, but since they told us it was going to be plain white we were VERY happy to see that it's not really white. I'm sure it'll even be less white looking once they are finished. Can't wait to see once they are done with the painting! It really is slowly becoming a house, and it's our house!!!

Steps and Deck

When we went by the house today, they had painted the interior walls. Unfortunately it smelled so bad we couldn't stay inside long enough to take any pictures. They also added steps going into the house from the garage, and the back deck is done!

Cabinets, Doors, Molding, and Deck

We went by the house today, and they had done a ton! All of the cabinets are in, as well as the interior doors. The crown molding is up, and the deck was almost finished too!
