Laboring on Labor Day!

The past few weeks have been busy. Not only has it been a successful transition back to school, but we accomplished much at the house. The walls in the house are now painted (we still need to paint trim and doors), new trim was placed in the great room, and we have some of our lighting in the kitchen. We purchased new countertops for the kitchen and the next few evenings and weekends will be devoted to painting trim and doors. Enjoy the pictures of our most recent progress!

This is a close up of the baseboard trim. We picked a colonial trim that suits the style of the house.

This is the new "S" shaped track light in the kitchen. It's pretty and provides great light. We'll also have three pendant lights above the kitchen sink.

New trim around the kitchen window. Ross installed...Jacqueline painted. We love that teamwork!



Ross built the trim around the back door to match the trim around the front door (below). It looks awesome and I am planning to put the Cats Meow Bel Air houses (thanks, Mom!) above both doors.



The new (and improved!) kitchen so far! We've come a LONG way!

The house looks awesome! What a complete change. I remember seeing the house before demolition and now it looks twice as big inside. You two are doing a great job...Ross, you're handiwork and Jacqueline, your impeccable supervision skills and design decisions, not to mention your trim work on the windows. Great job and what a great project for the two of you!
