House updates

This will probably be the title of many blog posts to come. We are making some progress. Every day is a little improvement. The biggest thing is having time. But we now have base cabinets in. I need to do a couple more sanding/finishing coats and put the hardware. Next is the walls and floor and hopefully our counters will be installed soon! Jamir put a little section of fence to give us more privacy from the neighbors. I planted the trees and painted our bedroom. It was so nice to have that wallpaper gone! Now to tackle the awful paper in Ben's room.

Demo

They left behind this for Ben.


just strips of wallpaper glue left. Its all clean now, but I haven't taken a picture. Also, blinds are up and that is a huge difference too!
