What We Are Thankful For This Year.

Thanksgiving is just around the corner and for once I am grateful for not having to do any of the planning. I think this year I am very thankful for family. It is a guarantee that we wouldn't be this far on the house without the help of our families. So here are a few more pictures of how the house is coming along.



This first picture is very exciting because it shows the kitchen in the final stages. Chris got the microwave up with the double ovens and now all the appliances are fully functional. The set up looks wonderful unfortunately due to my vertical disability this microwave will probably be use for popcorn only.

The cabinets are getting the final trim pieces on and are looking fabulous, but don't call Chris a carpenter just yet. The under cabinet lights are working too thanks to Tim, and our electrician has to make one more trip down to finish installing the pendant & bathroom lights and hard wire the mechanical room.

The garage is also coming around. Chris finished putting down the tile to the mudroom/area. Besides the mop sink in the corner, Chris will be able to put in the washer and dryer once he gets his grout down. This mud area will be a great space now that the cold and soon snow season is arriving. We will finally have a place to put all the coats and boots.

The piddle little things are getting done but they do clean up the place nice. The bi-fold doors to the pantry and hall closet are getting hung. If you look closely enough to the hall closet, you can see the white door to the mechanical room. I give Tim credit for making Chris see that function doesn't have to triumph over looks. These doors work just as well as they look.

As the season for thanks approaches us, we are deeply humbled by all the support we have received from our families and all I want for Christmas is carpet :-D
