Construction: Days 44-47

Brick!!
Texture on the walls!!
Primer!!

eeps!  Exciting stuff, ladies and gents.  Very exciting stuff. 




We are down to one month before our estimated close date.  

::insert panic::

I'm not sure how this house is going to be complete in one month - but hey - that's why I don't work in construction. 
 I also have NO concept of how long it should take to pack a 2 bedroom 2 bathroom apartment.  I always pack waaaay to early (cause I'm so danged excitable).  I'm trying to be more reasonable... but I don't know what that feels like.

How early do you pack before a move?  When do I need to get this packing show on the road?

Construction: Days 41-43

Drywall is up!

They have been taped and mudded and the rounded corners have been installed, with the exception of the office and the master bedroom.  It looks so great.
Walking through the space now... it's starting to "feel" really good - like it could be our home.  When I think about all the memories that we will have in the house my heart feels like it is going to implode.

Entry Way

Dining Room/Office

I love this little passthrough in the foyer looking into the planning area

Kitchen and living room

Master Bedroom

Standing in the back entry way looking towards the front of the house. 

Standing in the playroom - looking towards the kitchen
The doorway to the right of the arch is the guest bathroom.
The doorway to the left of the arch is a linen closet.

Standing in the extended entry looking into the playroom. 


Bedroom #3.  (The one closest to the garage/front of the house)

 Standing inside bedroom #2 looking out.  (The doorway through the doorway is the guest bath).

Standing in Bedroom #2's doorway, looking across the playroom into bedroom #3's doorway.  

This is a cool detail in the extended entry way.  The ceiling cut it out is over the fridge and a few cabinets.  I think it helps make the long hallway of an entry not feel so "tunnel-ish".


Life is flying at a speed racer pace.  I can't wait to settle into this home and start creating memories!
