Start of Flooring & Counters are Installed!
I have been very excited to see how the granite in the kitchen and the hardwood floors come out. When I went into the house yesterday, the counters were installed and the flooring was started! They did the flooring in the living room, part of the dining room and hall. I didn't go upstairs, but they were working on the hardwoods upstairs while I was in the house :)
Here's the kitchen. The granite is hidden under the paper...can't wait until the appliances and backsplash are done!
It looks green tinted to me in this picture...but it is mostly brown with specks of black in it. Has some tan with a tiny bit of orange and green. They had this counter/cabinet combo in the design center and I loved it! I like it because I want to pick up the black in it and do black accents in the kitchen with a black kitchen table, etc. And I think overall its a pretty classic look for the kitchen.

More Progress....7/30/11
Well today we went to see the inside of the house again. The house is now locked unless someone is working on it, so we had to grab the key from the sales office. the kids had a good time running around, although they have to be very careful as there are nails, etc all over the place on the floors. We have our pre settlement walk through on Aug 24th and then we close on Aug 31st. I am getting very excited!
Big things left are flooring needs to be finished, counters in the kitchen, backsplash, appliances, and sod outside. And all the other little things I don't know about!
Front of the house..siding is done and they finished the front porch this morning! Just need the front door painted (black). But I believe they do that as one of the last things before we move in. I am very happy with how the outside colors came out. We only got to choose the color of the siding, as the outside elevation of the home was predetermined since the foundation was already poured before we signed the contract.
This area is a loft on the 2nd floor. It will be the kids 'hang out' area. Plan is to put some of their toys in here, bean bag chairs, a tv and eventually computers and desks. This is nice since we can keep an eye on them :)

House Pics 7/27/11
So since we are lucky enough to live around the corner (literally) from our new home, we are having tons of fun going over each night to check out the progress. And its moving fast now!! Today we went in and the siding was complete outside, the outside lights and lamps were up, driveway is paved, walkway to porch is paved, fireplace is almost done, most the recessed lights are done, the AC was on and all the tile in the bathrooms was complete! Super exciting. I can't wait for the kitchen counters to go in!
Tonight was really fun..Lindsay and I walked over together and we ended up hanging out with some new neighbors that live behind us. Lindsay had a ball running around with the kiddos :)
Front of house..Siding Done!!
Front porch. Looks like tomorrow the white columns are going on. Door will be painted black to match the shutters.
Does the van come with the house?! These poor guys worked ALL day putting in tile! At least the AC is on now for them :)
