House Update Jan 25th

As I mentioned in the last post, we're coming down the home stretch on the house. On the outside, the rough stucco is done, the windows are in, and the roof is done. The main thing left to do on the outside is to apply the finish color coat of stucco which they will do once we nail down the color. We also need to get some of the concrete blasted up and get some steps built in the back, but that will be done near the very end. The garage is a bit of a mess but we'll probably deal with that after we move back in the house.

On the inside, the tile and cabinets are going in right now. We have a coat of paint on the kitchen and family room but we're not sure we like the color. The tile in the bathrooms is starting to come together and it looks great. The cabinets look good too but we've had a few issues. We're going to make the island a tad smaller than what we'd planned on and we need to figure out what we're going to do with the oven cabinet. The contractor says it's too small for the oven we're getting, but the cabinet guy says it will be fine with a little cutting on the sides. Not sure who's right here, but we're siding with the contractor for now.

The window and door frames should get done this and the tile and cabinets should be pretty much finished as well. After that, we're on to the countertops and then flooring. Below are some pictures from this weekend.
