trim and tile

it is amazing how fast our trim guy gets things done. he is so talented and has been doing trim for so long, that he could probably do things with his eyes closed.

yesterday morning, we met our builder out at the house to go over a list of questions/action items. while were there mike, our trim guy, was out there. he has been working on our baseboards, window and door trim. when i arrived back out at the house after work, he had started on our built ins, which he had not started at all that morning!

 he will build the cabinet on the right to be as tall as the one on the left. we are putting our tv in the cabinet on the left. each cabinet will have doors on the base. i think they already fill in that space and make a huge difference!

our tile guy laid the tile in the shower floor. look how great it looks!!

the slab of our granite in the bathroom.

yesterday while i was at the house, i also met with the guy who does our shower door. we are getting a framless, clear glass door. it will give the shower a clean look, just the look we were looking for. we also did a walk through of the whole house and the closets, laundry room and garage. i'm all about organization and i want to be able to move it and put everything in its place. having the closets exactly how i want them will help!

last night, since Jack went onto the lake with kurt's parents, we went to brecher's lighting and picked out our dining room, foyer, master bath and breakfast area light. we had looked high and low at lowe's and home depot and just weren't finding anything that we liked or thought would look good. we both agreed that once we were done with our lights, that a HUGE weight had been lifted off our shoulders. i'm SICK of looking at lights!!

we are heading to the lake today after work so we won't get back out to the house until monday. can't wait to see the progress made over the weekend!
