Nearing the finish line!

We are almost there. We finally have all of our flooring in. Our wood floors look fabulous. We are so pleased with them.
I want to thank Laurel Poll for all her help with the tile. I loved learning how to do it and they look so great. It really was a lot of fun, but a ton of work. However, I think they turned out great. I did the tiled hearth all by myself. It was so cool.



We also finally got our linoleum in and it looks fabulous too. After that all we were waiting for was our carpet and for our contractor to finish all his things. Well, we now have carpet and it looks great. It is so soft and thick, we just had to take our shoes off yesterday and tromp all over the house. We love it! We are so excited that it is really looking like a livable house now. We just sat on the floor and stared at last night and didn't want to do anything else. It felt like Christmas to get our carpet in.


So now all that's left is for our contractor to come in and work on his huge list of finishing touches. It should only take him a few days and then we have to get it inspected. Once it passes inspection we can move in! I know we've been saying that we should be done in 2 weeks for about two months now, but now it looks like it really will happen that way! I can't wait to cross that finish line. Wish us luck!
