Paint and more

This week they have been painting the inside and the trim around the roof. They also installed the kitchen granite counter tops, the master bath marble counter tops, and the utility room granite counter top. We were originally going to use Formica in the utility room, however they found a nice piece of granite in the bone yard that would be about the same cost as the Formica so we went with the granite since it would look better, last longer and be easier to clean. They still have to do the guest bath and the two upstairs baths in the cultured marble as well as the powder bath in the granite that I provided via Dr. George. The inside is almost completely painted although they still have to do all the fine detail work where the different colors meet up as well as do all the touch up work. We thought they would have started the stone work outside, however no action has been started there. We hope this next week stone will be going up, painting finishing up and tile work beginning. We are anxious to get in the house. We have no more motivation to do anything around our house here. We have to finish up selecting lighting and fireplace mantle.


This is the marble counter top in the master bath. Joel's vanity.

The boys love going to the house and playing with everything they find. This is them playing in the sand. Jaeden and Jayce told us they were making "sand angels". Since we don't get much snow here especially in May they had to improvise. They are always making us laugh and yes they were in their PJ's. Needless to say we had to do baths when we got home and new PJ's. Jaxon does not like sand or else he would have joined them.
