so close.

Yes, it has been wayyyy too long since our last post. And, yes, a WHOLE lot has happened at the house in the last 3 weeks. We are so close to being finished... it is scary.
Let's see... we left off with the cabinets going in. Since then, my wonderful husband has been hard at work. He did an AMAZING job finishing up all the interior trim and the ceilings. You will see pictures below, but when we started building the house and decided to vault the ceilings, he came up with a really neat idea to put wood on the flat parts of the ceilings upstairs. The pictures don't do it justice. It looks awesome... and I know all the hard work he put into them sure did pay off. 
We have been blessed with many people who have been such a tremendous help. A huge thanks to Ed Abraham who has been there with Matt for crazy long hours. 

What else? Hmmm... The interior is painted! Can't believe how good the colors turned out. The kitchen counters and sink are in. Floors went in. Hardwood throughout downstairs. Travertine in both bathrooms. And carpet in the two upstairs bedrooms. It has really brought everything together and looks awesome. Both showers are finished. AND our bathtub arrived. This is definitely my new favorite spot in the house :)

We have a lot of pictures to share... here are just a few of the highlights

we have porch lights :)
