Construction Update - Interior

It's amazing what drywall does to make the interior of the house look like a .... well, house! Seemed like nothing was going on for weeks (between May and June), and then, bam!, they installed drywall at the end of June.

July 21: Kitchen Cabinet Installation

Notice anything?  They ordered the WRONG cabinet style.  Remember Cabinet Gate? After all that back and forth, our final selection was the modern/Shaker style cabinet; but the sub-contractor misread the order (went by the old paperwork) and we received the traditional style cabinets! :(  Fortunately, they'll be able to swap out the doors since the material and color are the same without delaying our close date. Whew!

Construction Update - Exterior

It's been almost two months since my last update and so much progress has been made!  Our little plot of land actually looks like a house now both outside AND inside.  Since there are so many pics to share, I'll be splitting this up into an exterior construction update and then follow-up with an interior contruction update.  Happy viewing!
