Cabinets, Part I

This weekend part of the kitchen cabinets went in! We are so excited- so far they look great and we can't wait to see how it all comes together.

January Update

Besides the installation of lighting, not a whole lot has gone on at the house in the past month- hence the lack of updates! Things are going to get rolling, though, so it was time for an update!

At the end of December the majority of the lighting went in! Everything looks awesome! Love our porch light:


And our fans/kitchen lighting:


And our West Elm dining room fixture. Can't wait to see it all come together with furniture! 


Since the beginning of construction the house was either blisteringly hot inside or freezing! I think the kids started to dread going to the house because for the past few months it's been colder inside the house than outside. Today, though, for the first time ever it was WARM inside! The heat was on! It was such a treat :) The floors are going to be sanded and stained next week, so we had a chance to look around the house today in our socks (it got a nice clean prior to the floor work that will be done) and had a blast going around the house testing out all of the light switches :) 



Hopefully I will keep on top of updates- lots of fun stuff will be happening in February! We are estimating an end of the month completion. The next big thing is the beginning of the cabinet installation and picking out the flooring color. We will see how that goes- it is the #1 thing Eric and I have disagreed about! Hopefully we will agree on a color that makes us both happy :) Stay tuned!
