Better Pictures!

So I took better pictures with the real camera last night.. And since we're finally unpacked they're a lot nicer than the last ones.. Here's the kitchen.

Chandelier from below, my husband had to attach each crystal on his own (with my help, of course)

the Powder Room


The pedestal sink in the powder room

The mudbath with marbelite sink

Laundry Room

Boys room.. Couldn't take a pic of the other kids' room because my son was asleep.. Didn't take a pic of the guest room either since it's just empty for now. We need to buy a set for it before my in-laws come into town.

2 more weeks!!!!

EEK!! Only two more weeks 'til we get our temporary certificate of occupancy (temporary bc we won't be doing the driveway, ground work, walkway, etc until the spring). We have a potential renter for our condo so we might be moving in as soon as three weeks!! Crazy stuff!
Not many pictures today, I only took pix of things that changed, here they are.

The Kitchen, almost final product!

Close up of the kitchen backsplash. What do you think??

Under-cabinet lighting. Here's where the appliance garage is gonna go.

Terrible picture, I know, but here's the dishwasher

Double wall oven. Stickers are on it still, it's all stainless steel.

My cooktop in stainless steel! Another terrible picture.. but LOVE those knobs ;)

The dining room came out great. Gotta give my husband props on the paint color he chose. With the crown moulding, the wainscott, and the light fixture, it looks great I think!

The lot in the falltime... The driveway asphalt won't be done until the spring. It will be gravel in the meantime.

Chandelier

When we went to the lighting place, we chose all but the foyer chandelier. In the end, we ended up buying this one from Costco.com. It needs 4 weeks to ship, and we ordered it 2 weeks ago. Can't wait for it to come, hope it looks good in our foyer!

Paint, Plumbing & Lighting Fixtures

Paint is almost done, and they started installing the plumbing & lighting fixtures! Here are the newest pix!

I decided to go with the new "goose-neck" style kitchen faucet, hope it doesn't go out of style soon!


Our nook

Fireplace mantel is in. We decided to paint it the same color as the hardwood.

We painted the family and living rooms a taupe color (the same color in our condo now).

The rest of the house and the hallways are irish cream.

The dining room hasn't been painted yet. I think the color we chose was called Ligonier Tan. The wainscott is done though! Love it!
