carpet's in!

We have carpet - in too many places in fact! (they installed it in the office - see bottom picture, which is supposed to be hardwood). Should be fixed by tommorow (fingers crossed).

playroom upstairs:


master bedroom:




office:


There is also carpet in the kids' bedrooms. Otherwise the house is tile/wood flooring.

And here is what's left to do... quite a few changes need to be made. We hadn't realized them all until recently!

These built-ins behind the kitchen are actually both supposed to be desks (see bottom picture):





The dining room needs a chair rail:



These steps off the back porch should be on the other side (leading to a future patio/deck):



Not pictured is a large rock under the sod, which we feel is a safety hazard for the kids, gutters on sides and back of the house, the electrical and gas issues mentioned previously, and a few clean-up/touch-ups.

We are headed to Utah for the next 2-3 weeks, or however much longer they need to finish up. Our contract here in the apartment ends on Friday so we'll head out that day. I may update once or twice more, depending on what gets done this week. Otherwise, the next batch of pictures will be taken as official occupants!
