The Well Gets Drilled!

Today was finally the day for the well to be drilled! We had some weather issues that slowed the process. When the pictures were taken, they were at about 75 feet and still drilling.

Counter Tops!!!!!!!

The counter tops are in and they look FANTASTIC!!!

I liked the faucet when I saw it in the box but I LOVE it installed! It's so perfect for this kitchen!

Once again, things are really coming together. There are not many parts of the house left to be finished.

Well Drilling Truck has Arrived

We were anticipating that the well drilling would begin today but the weather did not cooperate,
I heard Uncle Howie was asking a lot of questions about the well, so here are some pictures of the equipment that got dropped off.

There was a lot of grease on the windshield!

Dad and Di wanted me to see if the myrtle that they planted was alive...this is what I found...is it what you planted?

Preparing for the Well

Today, Zach and I took a walk down the path through the woods to Grandma and Grandpa's house.

I hadn't seen the box the power company put in...I try to stay out of the woods. :)

The guy that will be drilling the well this week came and dropped off some of his equipment.

When Dad and Di arrive at the end of April, they will have water in their house...no septic but water.

Kitchen Cabinets-Final Touches

David installed the crown molding on the top of the kitchen cabinets, today. It really gives them the "finished" look.
The only thing left to do with the cabinets is to put in the glass doors and fill them with the necessities!

This is a new cabinet that David installed. It is three inches wider than the original one.

Odds and Ends!

David installed the base "trim" around the kitchen cabinets. It looks GREAT!

Uncle Bruce's room got a closet bar so that he can hang his tuxedo when he visits! The hall closet and the office closet got the same.

The carpet got vacuumed and David installed the metal strips.

Video Walk Through :)

I can't believe I didn't think of this before--sorry to the fans of the blog! Here is a video walk through of most of the house. When Dad and Di are here I will have them do the commentating and won't go nearly as fast. Keep in mind...Videographer is not my day job! :)

The Concrete Gets "Paint"

Today David "painted" a stain onto the front porch concrete as well as the apron. It looks really sharp!

The concrete floor in the garage got an epoxy sealer put on it, today. The colors look really nice together and compliment the house, well.

There was a sand mix added to both so that the concrete would not be as slippery when damp or wet.

CARPET!!!!!!

THE CARPET WAS INSTALLED TODAY!!!!! This is really feeling like a home! Here is the living room.
The carpet looks good in all of the rooms! I think it looks GREAT with the blue in the master bedroom!

David set up a sample piece of the base trim that Dad will be installing when they move to VA in the fall.

Obviously, here is the carpet in the hallway.

We don't show pictures of this room on the blog very often. Here is a picture of the closet in the room that Zach will be moving into at "Papa and Grandma's!" April Fools! :)

Actually, David has had some time to work on our house a bit and just finished putting in Zach's closet.

We will be moving the rest of his things into his room this weekend. I'm wondering how long it can stay this clean!
