House Stuff

We haven't worked on the house much lately because we have had subs there doing some work. The stucco guys have "brown coated" (1st coat of stucco) the house and we are waiting for rock. Then they will do the second coat of stucco with the color we chose. That might be a long process since I chose the wrong color shingles for the color I wanted the house to be. I'm sure it will all turn out okay in the end.

Our house while they were working on the brown coat. Still very wet and a dark grey color.
This picture is with the brown coat too, but it's dry. Looks much lighter and like "real" stucco.
The other subs that have been there are the sheetrockers. They are still working on our house only now they are mudding, taping and texturing the walls. Even that little bit of mud makes a huge difference in how the house looks. We're getting there. In no time, we'll be doing floors, paint and getting cabinets. So exciting!!

Looking into the kitchen.
The front door, looking through the living room.
The north bedroom.
Looking down the hall, the living room is on the left.
Here is a little preview of our flooring. We are going to do tile in the kitchen and dining room (you can see our cabinet door sample-just the color will be similar, the style is going to be totally different), and the hardwood (Brazilian Teak to be exact) that will go through the living room in a small path and in both hallways. We are so excited. Can't wait to see it on the floor.
