Over the past two weeks we have had some fun transformations. The addition of drywall started to make the space feel more livable and was a major step forward. Today the paint went up and am head-over-heels for the color: "Walden Pond". The pop of blue in our fairly natural/neutral house is invigorating. I'm going to love spending time in this room!
On Deck
We try to stay a step or two ahead of Steve so that he has the materials needed when he gets to that stage. Next up are flooring and cabinets. Can't wait!

Bamboo flooring is acclimated and ready for installation. I suspect that we'll love it enough that we'll be installing it in the sunroom next. |

Cabinets were delivered and skillfully stacked |

A sneak preview of the cabinet colors. We had to unwrap them all for a QA check. From what we've seen, there was only one damaged door. All else looks good. |
Summer Kitchen
Lots of folks have been asking how we are making out during construction. We are actually doing just fine. Our guest room has been turned into the "summer kitchen" and we are utilizing the cooking skills refined in college - only with way more gadgets and nutritional know-how. I'm proud to say we haven't eaten out or ordered in more than usual and we are keeping up on relatively healthy eating. No avoiding veggies just because we are missing an oven! And an unexpected bonus? I've had more steps and stairs on my Fitbit now that the fridge, sink, and kitchen are in 3 different rooms on two floors. Haha!

Microwave, toaster oven, toaster, magic bullet, hot plate. What more do you need? |

Luke coined this piece "The Furniture called Pantry" |

The laundry room is serving double duty as the primary dishwashing station |
