1408...coming along

on sunday our little stinker lilly woke up early from her nap and insisted on going downstairs to wake up her sister. so instead we took her for a tour of the house. it was time to take some updated pictures anyway! it's really starting to come together. our builder says we should be able to move in around the middle of october! they are laying the hardwood floors this week and the cabinets should be in next week. cannot wait to see what a difference that makes! cannot believe it's already september...they have a lot to accomplish in a month and a half but i have no doubt they'll get it done. i'm not getting anxious or anything ;)

here's the view from the street. taken 8.29.10


view from the front yard


lil & i


stairs are in! just need to be stained once the floor is in and stained! this is the flight that goes into the kitchen


our very rustic fireplace mantle.


master bath...floor and shower tile in.


lil & daddy sitting in the shower


dan's "man room" the study that is attached to the master. the wood paneling in here will be stained darker





staircase in entry


the front door...newly stained.


dining room. those french doors open to the wrap around porch. i can just picture the doors open and people mingling out there on a cool autumn evening waiting for dinner to be served :)


ry's room...wainscoting will be painted white to match the trim.


lil checking out her new tub!


base boards in upstairs. it's really amazing what some nice white trim can do for a room!


view of entry way from 2nd floor


view of timbers from 2nd floor over-look. these were stained a little darker last week. they will stay like this


our garage...filled with our painted shutters. cannot wait to see these on the front of the house!


of course when ry woke up and heard we went through the house...she had to go see it too. the two of them hanging out in our new shower!
