Moving Right Along

So I have not been able to keep up with this blog and match the pace of our home construction.  Construction started in late July and here we are on September 20 and our house is scheduled to be completed by October 14.  Here are a few pictures of the first floor since the drywall went up.

The first picture is a picture of the exterior of the home with siding and windows.  The second picture is in the entrance way looking into the dining room.  In an earlier post I mentioned that at the pre-dry wall inspection we noticed that these arches were not in.  That was corrected in the entrance to the dining room.  The archway entrance to the living room is still not correct.  The stairs and the stair railing are in as well.

Here is the kitchen.  The cabinets and granite turned out very nicely.  At this point they were covered while the house was undergoing a second painting over the dry wall.  The appliances will be delivered towards the end of the month.

Here is the "activity center" organization upgrade in the mudroom from the garage.  I think it will be very useful for the boys to store their backpacks and easily locate them in the morning before school.

Final picture from the first floor is a picture of the coffered ceiling in the family room.  I'm glad we chose to add recessed lighting along with the ceiling fan rough in, but we will definitely need a telescopic light changer pole.  Lol
