Day 71 - Mudroom Tile and Exterior

The front of our home is finally being started!! YAY!! Our builder told us it is going to take around a week to complete because it is custom siding (I really don't know what it is called), but it takes longer than vinyl to install. Also, our siding guy had his appendix removed a couple of weeks ago, so he is just getting back to work at our house. 


Our mudroom tile has been laid, but not grouted yet. It is a pretty greige color - don't mind the red in it now - that is from the cutting. It is Emser Bristol Concorde - I REALLY like it!!!



I think tile takes a long time to lay! They are also hopefully going to be starting our hardwood flooring soon!! YAY!!!

Things are really moving at the house now!! YAY!! The garage doors were installed today and let me tell you - THAT was a pleasant surprise!!! We thought they were coming after Labor Day - so YAY!!!


Our bar was also installed today! My dad built it and did an AMAZING job! I am in love!!


The fridge will be raised to be level with the countertops after carpet goes in :)


The tile guys were also out there today! I am super excited to see that work start to happen! Everything is finally coming together!! YAY!!

Day 53-68

Lots and lots of house updates!! Sorry for the delay, but the insulation and sheetrock just wasn't that exciting ;)

Okay, so with the sheet rock in, the rooms are finally starting to look like....rooms!! YAY!!! This is the family room.

And kitchen/dining! It is so fun seeing it all come together!


Our actual quartz slabs came in and our fabricator text me these pictures. I am IN LOVE with this color!!! 


These are our paint options that I picked for our bathrooms - the top is the boys bathroom, and guest bath. The dark gray is going to be the color of the shiplap on the boys bathroom wall :)


This will be the color scheme in the master bath :)


We have a front porch AND COLUMNS!! Heck yeah!!! 


This week will be a busy one at the house! They are going to be spraying the ceilings and priming the walls. Then, tile and hardwood is going to start!! YAY for a fun, productive week!!

Day 50-52

This past week is kind of condensed into one post because well, insulation is boring! Glad that part is over and we have drywall to look forward to this next week!! YAY!!

They also framed out the surround for our master bath, so that was fun to see!


Siding is mostly done in the back and on the sides - just waiting for the LP to come in and the front to get finished!!


We will hopefully be able to make it out there quite a bit this week to watch the progress - it is getting so exciting!!
