We are in!!

Here are just a few pictures of our the house since we moved in. Please bear in mind that it still needs a lot of work. We have the flooring down, the cabinets in with no countertops yet, the staircase in except for the railing and all of our boxes in the front living area!! Needless to say, it is still a bit of a mess, but it is our mess, right?

time keeps on tickin...

We are running out of time and I am trying to post some pics very last minute. next time, we will be in the house, which is this weekend...so, please pray for us!! Carpet is being put in tonight, staircase, kitchen floor and cabinets put in tomorrow.

These pictures are of the beam that was put up this week and also a picture of where the staircase used to be. One picture is looking up towards the second floor as if I was walking up the old staircase.

These pictures are from the dining room looking into the kitchen. You can see that all the cabinets are down and so are the walls.

I love progress...

Ok, here are some more pictures...finally! It may not look like much to you, but to be here and see it in the flesh, it is so much progress. All of the pics are of the first floor and shows pretty much all the walls out, the beam that runs from the front of the house to the back is up. All of the walls in the kitchen are down, all 4 layers of linoleum are out,and the staircase is out. The electrician is supposed to come Monday and hopefully by the end of the week, the drywall will be started. Then the spiral staircase needs to be installed. All I can say is I am so ready to be done!! The house needs to be livable by August 30th!! All of our big plans for fancy cabinets, appliances, and countertops is not gonna happen by then, but that's what craigslist is for, right? By the way, I love craigslist!! Anyway, enjoy the pictures and I will keep the posts coming...
