Day 28-30 - Countertops, Basement Progress

We had a super busy week in the house department, but I was out of town with the boys for quite a few days so I wasn't able to get a ton of pictures done!! Also, the progress is now consisting of HVAC, plumbing, etc., so the changes can be seen, but they aren't as exciting for me ;)

I went home to my parents to get our final countertop choices picked out! Our kitchen will be quartz - its called Calacatta Classique. It is a white base with deep gray veining throughout. I am absolutely OBSESSED with it!! It will be so bright and clean in our kitchen!!

This is the master bath quartz.

This is our powder room - and it is marble. I am super excited about it!! So many people had comments about using marble in our home, but I REALLY wanted it somewhere - so the powder room seemed like the natural choice! 

This will be the quartz used in the boy's bathroom and on the bar. It is hard to see in the picture, but it has some light gray veining throughout. I really like how subtle it is!

This might be one of my favorite pieces - it is for the guest bathroom. I am in LOVE with the gray and white!!!

This is the quartz for our laundry room. 

I ended up having to make some changes in the stone that I originally picked, because some of my design styles changed, but I am glad that my parents are great friends with the owners of the company -they were SO kind and accommodating to us!!

We are doing in-floor heat in the basement, so that was laid last week! I am hoping that means they are going to pour the concrete down there soon!! YAY!!!

Our fireplace was also installed! I am VERY excited about the design I did for our fireplace. It is going to be a white surround with a barn-beam mantle and I am (hoping) a gold marble tile. It is going to come together so beautifully!!

Our builder said that we will have our electrical walk-through in the next week or two - after that, it will be insulation and sheetrocking the walls. In about a month, our siding will hopefully be in and at the end of August, it will be cabinet install time!! AHH!! It is going quickly, but I wish I could snap my fingers and be moving in! It is so fun to see everything come together!
