More of the same :)

Well, at this stage it feels like more of the same...the siding is still going on the house, and the painters are working away. However, it's getting awfully close to when things will need to be done. Two weeks from today Corey wants our dishwasher and hood fan delivered so they can be hooked up. That must mean that the house will be ready for them to be hooked up (right?)

Anyhoo...here's the south side of the house. Top floor windows are to David's room, window below is the laundry room and below that is the basement!

And the front of the house...the siding parts (except around David's bedroom) are hardi plank. They'll paint that in whatever colour it was that Andrew picked for the hardi plank. We ended up picking three shades of brown...one is a close match to the vinyl siding; one is a medium brown and one is a very dark brown. I can't remember what goes where so it will be a nice surpirse for all of us ;) I do know we didn't want white trim and our door is going to be red.

Here's the front entrance way. Looks like we'll have a wee little porchy thing in front of the door.

Inside, they've been busy spraying our doors and the trim. There was a painter there today working on a final coat on the trim.

This is the inside of our garage. Andrew's really excited about the quality of our garage door. He says it's much nicer (thicker) than our current garage door. Which is good, especially if I decide to try and drive dad's truck into the garage without opening it first (again).


The den, from the outside. Nice windows, eh?

And the back of the house.


This afternoon we stopped at the Brick and looked at appliances. The sales guy was very helpful, and explained quite well the differences in appliances. We've got a list of the ones that looked the best (based on quality of handles, room in dishwashers etc.) but now I want to check out reviews before we actually order.

We dropped off the three mirrors we have already and we tried to pick up the tile today too, but they were closed. The tile has to be there by a week from today so I guess that's something we'll be doing on the weekend coming. And now I'm off to do some comparison shopping online. Toodles ;)
