Pictures are worth a thousand words...

The appliances came as schedule two Fridays ago.  I have used my oven almost every day.  I really did miss baking.  The range works beautifully and the refrigerator is great (although it's just a fridge).  We are all so happy to have a working kitchen again!

The following Monday people came to blow in insulation in the attic.  What a world of difference that has made.  We had very little to begin with in the original house anyways, and of course nothing in the addition until now.  The bedrooms don't feel so cold anymore!

The quartz countertops went in at the desk area and also the half bath.  My uncle came by and installed undercabinet lights in the kitchen and laundry room, lights at the desk area, installed the other light fixture at the garage and installed the door bell.

The contractor came this past Friday and installed the baseboard in the bedroom closets, hung the address numbers and the good 'ol mailbox.  He also had to fix two doors that were sticky (and not sticky with food...can't blame this one on my kids).

The plumber came by this morning and installed the faucet in the half bath, so now that bathroom is functional.  We are schedule to have the vinyl floors installed in the two existing bathrooms on Wednesday, so we will have to tear out the existing cabinets and install the new ones, which means we will be down to one bathroom for a little while.  See, the construction never stops around here!

We had to move everything out of the storage unit on the 10th...so now everything that we don't need is either in the garage or the house...guess I'll need to plan on a garage sale....

Okay, I really wasn't going to say that much...here are the pictures!





My uncle installing the recessed lights.

I love how the lights make arcs on the wall.

Hard to see, but the under cabinets lights are on.

Our door bell!  I love it!

Here the countertop is in at the desk.

Vanity done in the half bath.

Baseboard in the closet.  I can start to fill them up now.
