Christmas 2008

Finally, a Bathroom

We got a great deal on our vanity top, but had to wait until the kitchen counters were installed to have it also installed. That put our bathroom on hold until we were ready for counters, which all happened a few days before Christmas. One of the nice things, well one of the only nice things, about doing a lot of the work yourself are the extra things you end up adding to a project. Our bathroom ended up with heated marble floors, in-ceiling speakers, and a heated towel rack. We're still feeling like we're in a hotel.

Finally, a Kitchen

It has been a long road but we finally have a working kitchen. The cabinet guys are not all done quite yet (better be this week), but we have moved in and hooked up just about everything. We had forgotten how great modern conveniences like dishwashers and garbage disposals were. We used Vermont soapstone on the counters and are really pleased with how things are turning out. Eventually, we'll get the backsplash and pot filler in to finish out the kitchen, but who knows how long that will be so I'll go ahead and put these pictures up.

Learning New Things

These guys are getting more fun every day.
