New House Update

Okay I’ve lost count of what week this is and I’ve lost track of what I have updated, all because things are happening so quickly.Last time I posted it was to talk about the cabinets having been installed.  Since then we have had the counter tops installed, plumbing. lighting, floors, yard and so much more.So much to write about, like the crazy ass builders awe are using, but I am saving that for another day.  Today I am just going to share some more photos.
 

Cabinets Have Arrived

The cabinets arriving and being installed was out surprise of the week.  We thought we were a week or more away from this.  All I can say is I LOVE them and it was worth all the time and effort we took to make sure we got exactly the brand and color we saw over a year ago in a local home improvement store.Here are the install photos, can’t wait to see it all complete 🙂
 

 

Up Next…. Garage

It has been our intention from the beginning of the house build to have a detached garage.  Now we are far enough along in the building of the house to concentrate on location and design.  This is one area I am totally leaving up to Guy.  Except for the color of siding and roof (which will match house) the rest us up to him.We are going to go with a pole barn on concrete slab.  This way it can be bigger that a traditional build and much more affordable. Yesterday we started walking the lot to stake out the location so that we can clear the 80′ x 80′ approx. space we will need.  I think we are both very happy with the location. It will be away from the house, not to far away though, actually across from it. It is just off the driveway and hidden behind trees. We are going to put a main driveway to it and then a second access “trail.I think Guy is more excited about the garage then about almost anything 🙂6188442_orig
