Working Hard

As promised an update. I did post more pictures of our house and our progress thus far in the link on the left hand side of the page titled, “Our House”. As you can see in the pictures we have finished painting all three bedrooms upstairs and they look awesome. It took us most of the break to finish painting and spackling but we did it. The next step for those rooms is to refinish the floors, which Erik said would take us three weekends to do, but hopefully we will have those done by the end of this month.

As for the rest of the house, yesterday we started taking down the soffits in the kitchen, as you can see in this picture. We will also hopefully order our kitchen cabinets and granite; the cabinets should take around 6-8 weeks to come in, then Erik and I (along with whoever else would like to help) will start installing the cabinets. We are hoping to have the kitchen done around April, but we will see how the timing works out.

The girls and I went this past week to look for bridesmaids dresses, and we found them! It was honestly the first dress that was put on we all loved. The dresses take eight weeks to come in, so I would like to have them ordered by April at the latest. Anya and Bethany still have to go in and try the dresses on, but as soon as they do we will order them.

I think that is it for now....
