Kitchen Cabinets




Today, it felt like everything was starting to come together. It has been over two months, on wallpaper stripping, demolition, bathrooms, flooring and more, but today we saw very fast progress. It gave us all a "ahhhh" moment!


I have included a BEFORE picture, I am sure you can guess which one it is. The Home Depot team installed the kitchen cabinets, and we now need to do a back splash, and install the appliances, which are sitting in the living room. The electrics have been upgraded, and Adair is getting quite good at plumbing. Hailey was helping and putting up mirrors and towel racks in the bathrooms, plus today they spent out and about purchasing 300 feet of trim, mostly baseboard, plus closet bi fold door kits.


But the kitchen, made everything seem worthwhile today...

Install Bathtub and More!


Adair and Hailey managed to get the new bathtub in the upstairs bathroom. With some help they also got the plumbing organized and are now ready for tiling.


It was a busy week. We finished off the wallpaper removal, plumbing lines replaced, new laundry tub, kitchen confirmed, additional subflooring, and today I was trying to wash the walls to get rid of wallpaper residue, and prep them for some repairs with spackle. Who ever lived here before, loved to hang pictures on the walls (lots of nail holes) and hooks in the ceiling.


The house still seems to be in shambles, but I am sure it will come together in the New Year, as we have picked many of the new additions, such as kitchen, paint and flooring etc.


Tomorrow, they are coming in to do the final measure for the new kitchen cabinets.

Replace Patio Door




Today, Jeremy and Adair installed a new patio door. The old one, was a old metal frame one, with cracked glass, and was very ugly! The rest of the house, has already had window replacements, but this door was never touched.


It took some work, getting in the new one, but with the weather moving in soon, we thought it should be changed now. Already makes the kitchen look better.
