Caution: Construction Zone

So we are 10 days into the renovation process for our new house with only 4 more working days to go! Oh boy, I'm a little nervous about the completion happening on time. Check out the progress below! You can compare these pics with the pics I posted a few posts back.


Here is the backyard and pool. We have taken out all the greenery behind the pool to make room for grass and an area for lounge chairs. The concrete, bricks, and everything else has been removed to make room for our new pool! Yeh!


This is the girls' room. This picture shows the new baseboards and chair rail. Their new beds were custom built to fit right under where the ceiling is slanted. No jumping on the beds will be possible with this configuration!

This picture shows the progress in the dining room/living room. Our contractor is building custom wainscotting in both of these rooms and the entry. He is awesome! He finished one panel (not in the picture) and I am so, so happy with it! yeh!



This is the family room. Right now it is housing all the new doors as their paint dries. But today this room will be cleared out and the wood floors stained a new hue!

What do you think? Does it look like this house will be liveable (sp?) by Sunday?
We'll just cross our fingers!

casey could not do this, but you will get through it. a couple of weeeks is way better than 8 months and if you like your contractor it really really helps looks great
