We’ve been working on the kitchen.  We have finally figured out that weird corner where the stairs are located.  We have an overhead microwave; which really opened up counter space!  We have a new stove that has a functionally oven!  We have ordered countertops, and are just waiting for the installation date!  I am so excited about our kitchen!!

We bought all the windows for the upper floor (minus the dinning room since I need to think about it a little more).  We installed the last living room window and kitchen window.  The one in the living room we added a little fun by using the square wood blocks in each corner.  We are planning on doing that in the bedrooms and on the trim around the front door. It’s so nice to have noise canceling windows that actually open!

We have painted the bedroom, dining room, and living room!  The dinning room is the same paint color as the living room (slightly off white).  The bedroom is a light blue gray color.  It’s crazy how much paint can change a room!

We have drywall textured the bedroom, office, dinning room, living room, and bathroom.  Next step is to paint!

If it’s not one thing it’s another

Just a quick update: our contractor found black mold in the downstairs basement yesterday.  :(  On the plus side the water system now holds pressure!!

My husband and I purchased a house a few days before we were married in July.  I plan to chronicle our adventures in fixing the house up!  I will post more later about the house and it’s current status.
