Finally, an update

I know that you've been anxioulsy awaiting an update, but Gene and I have been so busy at the house (as well as with work) that I haven't had time to really update what we've been doing. But we're getting close to being able to move in. Here's pics and news from the past few weeks:

Gene ripped off the last of the countertop. He was the winner of who could get the most off in one big chunk.

I finished the floor in the office:

Gene installed our new dishwasher:

Gene cut and sealed our butcher block countertops. I can't wait to get these into the house. They're beautiful.

Yesterday and today we worked on finishing up the touchups in the kitchen, laying elastilon and then laying the floor. We're almost halfway done!

We also finally replaced one of the lights in the hallway with a much prettier and updated fixture.

We've also been slowly moving boxes out the house and into the closets. Next weekend we hope to bring most of the big stuff and be in by Sunday/Monday.

Day 49: Breaking Countertop and Mowing Grass

So on Friday, my mom was here to help us out. We took off the counter of the kitchens so we can get them ready for our new butcher block counter top. Here's a few pictures of her working hard:

And here's what we finished by the end of Friday:

Here's the nicely mown lawn as well.
