No More Pink House

It has been a while since we have updated our blog. I tried a week ago or so, but it wouldn't show the pictures so I didn't post.

Now the outside of the house has been sided, there is no more pink inside or outside. The hardwood has been installed. Rob and I are really the only ones that have seen it, as we went over, had a quick look and then covered it up to protect it.

The carpet has been installed, and the tile that was installed on our last post has been grouted. The backsplash in the kitchen has been tiled. The fireplace has been completed. Much of the plumbing is done, but the water was not on when we visited today. There seems to be a lot of work involved in the plumbing in our house, but I think the end result will be very nice. The boiler, pipes and tubing hooked up in the basement is quite the sight.

Looking Good

I know it has been a while since we last posted. We have taken possession of the house, but we don't know when we will move in yet. It seems even though there is something happening at the house almost every day, it is still going fairly slowly. Part of the reason for the slow progress is the extra things that are being put in the house.

Since we last posted, the stair railings have been installed. The first phase of the finishing has been done. That means all the trim, window seats and eating nook have been built. The painting has been done, and the lights have been installed. Most of the tile is installed, but it has not been grouted. That should happen on the weekend. They should be installing the hardwood soon. They were supposed to start today, maybe tomorrow.

They have also finally started the siding, so that means finally the pink on the outside will also be gone. It will turn into a really nice gray blue with white trim.
