Nearing the End

Well I have not posted in a couple weeks as my computer has been down and things are busy. The biggest stress right now is renting out all the places. Hopefully that will be done this week and I can start to focus on moving. The house is coming along well all the cabinets are in except the laundry room and the counter top has been ordered for the kitchen. The counter I ordered for the bathrooms is going to take 7 weeks (time I don't have) so I am going down tomorrow to pick out a new one that hopefully won't take long. As we decided we liked the slate so much we are now going to do the stairs as well. The bathrooms are all tiled except the shower in the en suite and the entry way still needs to be grouted. A couple of the stairs are done so that leaves 13 left to do. Kurk has got all the flooring done upstairs and has got the playroom done downstairs and is on to the hallway, living room, and finally our closet and bedroom. The siding guys are almost done (haven't I been saying that for the last month:p) I have picked out all the pulls for the cupboards and all the bathroom hardware. Chad is busy putting up all the closet organizers, rods, shelves etc. All the windows and doors are framed (except the patio door) and a lot of the baseboard is done. Chad has been doing an excellent job and it is so good to see him back at work after 1 1/2 years. The yard should have to topsoil on it next week and the patio and driveway should be done. All that is left for me to figure out is how to move house with 7 children and Kurk in Halifax......MOVERS:) oh and I get to hire someone to clean my old house.

Things are progressing quickly

This is rachel`s room. The girls both have the same colored rooms.





This is looking from the top of the staris along the hall to the girls rooms.

This is Kurk and Joshua hard at work. Joshua got to skip school to help because he has proved himself as being very helpful and very eager.

This is looking at the front door as they had set the mat down to start tiling. The open door is in to the garage and the other opening is the laundry room.

Well the house in now fully painted on the inside, the interior doors are all in, Kurk is almost done the flooring in the suite and the tiling is well underway. Chad is starting on the closet doors and then will start on all the trim. Kurk should be done the flooring in the suite tonight and will start on the stairs tomorrow. Derek has the entry way, downstairs powder room and most of the kitchen tiled and will then grout it. The upstairs bathrooms and suite bathrooms have all been started and will be tiled probably tomorrow. Our Cabinets will all arrive on Saturday (all 462 cartons of them) I have to have them sorted out by Monday. They are working on the exterior (still) and will hopefully be done by early next week:)
