Getting there!

Steph and I have continued remodeling just about everything in the house. To date we've updated the following:

• New Hot Water Heater
• New Stove/Oven
• New Mounted Microwave
• New Paint in all rooms
• New light fixtures throughout the entire house.
• 3 New Ceiling Fans
• New Sink
• New Disposal
• New kitchen faucets
• New fence (That was a beating as it was built in the middle of July. Thanks for the help Ralph!)
• A fixed AC Unit (fingers crossed it doesn't break any time soon)
• New inner workings of 3 toilets
• New closet shelves in two rooms
• New shelving in the laundry room
• New Laundry room French Doors
• New eco-friendly Back Door (Thanks Kevin! That was a whipping.)
• Most recently, and with the extremely generous gift by Ralph and Anita, we have brand new carpet! It makes the house smell brand new and it looks amazing!

What we have left:

• Finish the guest and half bathroom. We're taking off the wallpaper and retexturing/painting the walls. (Probably the worst thing ever in the history of remodeling). This needs to be done before Harrison is born as the guest bathroom will be his!!!
• Retile the master and guest bath tubs/showers as well as the kitchen backsplash.
• Possibly paint the cabinets. At the very least we will put handles on them.
• Do something about the countertops in the kitchen.

We've got a lot to do, but we've gotten a lot done. The house looks great though. Steph repainted the banister recently and it looks a lot better than it did. I scrubbed the tile floor in the kitchen. It was gross how dirty it was! We can think our dogs for that.

Thanks to our parents for the continued help. Most of the financial backing is from their pocketbooks and we are forever grateful for their support.

Maybe one of these days we can people over and show off some of the work we've done!
