House Update

It's been awhile since I've posted anything about the house, but things have been crazy with work and getting stuff done at the house. Things are definitely progressing. The texture went up on the wall last weekend (and what an ordeal that was), and we were able to paint the kitchen last week. Custom cabinets have been going up all week (another ordeal, but I think we're all on the same page now). We got our first inspection by the mortgage company today (all that means is that they see we're using their money to actually fix the house, and we can get our second draw so we can pay the contractor). I've picked out all the paint colors for the entire house (including the outside), and I decided on backsplash for the kitchen and the second bathroom today. All that's left is flooring (which we at least have some idea about), cabinet stain color, and tub surround for the master bath. So, we're definitely getting there. Most of what's left is up to Jay and I, since we decided we are going to do the flooring and painting ourselves. With that said, here are a few pictures from the last week.
