One week to go...

We are down to the last week of renovation work.  They are staining the hardwoods today and tomorrow.  We then just have some small things to do, like:
  • Install the backsplash
  • Put the new furnace in
  • Touch up paint
  • Get all the appliances and A/V stuff working.  Of course, we already had to have a service call on the refrigerator, which is now fixed...and now the dishwasher.
  • Misc stuff - repair back patio, replace door knobs, install furniture toekicks on cabinets, install disposal, replace kitchen window, install light fixtures, a little electrical, etc.
  • Clean it
  • Move all our furniture back in!
These pics are from yesterday morning.  The granite is in and the floors were about to get sanded. 

coming in the back door - new Mud room

in the mud room, looking into the kitchen on the left

walking thru the mud room, in the office.  You can see the A/V central
down in the bottom right corner.  We found a spot underneath the
stairs to build this out.

coming thru the foyer now, looking into the kitchen.  All the appliances
are in (thou not all necessarily working yet!)

in the foyer looking into the den

in the corner of the den, looking into the new dining room.  Notice
the nice work on the cauffered ceiling by David

in the den...another look back into the kitchen
