We finally had some a repreive from the rain in ATX, which meant they could finally do more outdoor work on my house. Step one: a roof! Step two: paint the trim! Step three: finish the stucco! And now I present... the first warmish sunny day we've had in weeks... and my house which is coming along quite nicely!
Here's some stucco work in action...
And here's a peak to everything inside, including a big stack of flooring. This is taken in the living room looking through the kitchen, bathroom into the master bedroom in the back. The house is *almost* sealed in, save for a window in my master bath.
So this week is finalizing inspections, finishing the painting, putting down my front porch, and lots of other stuff that I am clueless about. Good stuff, though. I'm still as happy as can be with Kevin & Nick, and I still believe that my architect Richard is a genius.
Fingers crossed for dry days this week!
I am digging the columns though. Once the porch + front steps + walkway is finished, it's going to look really awesome. I've always wanted columns like these, so I'm happy.
Eventually I will get a wood door, and the stain on the gables will match the door... and that will look awesome.
In other news, I went to Four Hands yesterday for their bi-annual sale. Bought a coffee table and a couch on a whim (with Mike's approval, luckily!) They were both awesome deals, and buying them made me feel better. Yay.
