Exterior finished

Well, it's great to be able to say that the exterior is finished, the siding and trim anyway. We still have to paint the exterior doors and spread some mulch. But now we're turning our focus inside. With the help of Christine's grandfather and some others, we have finished all the interior painting downstairs and will now start upstairs. We just ordered our hardwood (Nougat Maple) which will be delivered next week, and our kitchen cabinets will be coming tomorrow. And we also have a functional toilet and utility sink, so we'll be able to get rid of the Porta-potty soon. Yay!

This is going to be the boys room painted a blue color called Serene Sky

View as you enter the downstairs door (you may not be able to see it well in this picture, but the walls are a bright green all around the stairwell and into the playroom to the left)

Moving forward on all fronts

Wow, it's great to be making progress in so many areas. The drywall is now complete and we have begun priming. Next up, we're really excited to get some paint on the walls. Outside, we have 2 more half-walls to put up siding on and then trim. And as you can see, the porch is nearly finished and there's grass growing in the yard. Check out some pics!
