The finishing touches are starting to come together. The Brazilian Cherry wood floors arrived Wednesday. Tile came in at the end of last week and was installed this week. Next Monday our cherry kitchen and bathroom cabinets are being delivered along with the interior lighting fixtures. Tim and Travis worked late several nights this week to make sure the hard wood floors were installed in the kitchen, breakfast nook, and keeping room. Likewise Tyler, the "tile guy", installed the tile in the upstairs bathrooms, laundry room, and powder room. He prepped the master bathroom for tile which will start Monday morning. Tim also worked on putting up the crown molding on the main floor and the 7 1/4 in. baseboards. I finished building the tall doorway headers and finished the sheetrock I installed several weeks ago in my media distribution room/closet.
We had several nice days of weather this week which allowed a crew to install the soffits on the exterior. That really helped put a finished look on the exterior. There is a chance we will get some warmer and somewhat dry weather this coming week. Tim is hoping the excavators can bring in a high lift dozer to start the final grading. The construction site has really turned in to a mess so it will be good to get it cleaned up and leveled.
Next week should be really exciting with the cabinets and lighting. We should also see the tile installed in the master bath. At this point it is hard not to be excited that the project to so close to being complete. We keep getting asked when we will have a party and or cookout. I have a feeling we are going to have to hard several house warming parties with everyone who has been interested in the new house.
