Drywall Taping in Progress (10-15-2010)

Hi everyone, Happy Friday!! Brett went out to the house again today and looks like they're well into taping drywall. Up next will be "mudding" the drywall.

Today the builder confirmed that when the trim goes in, we'll receive our estimated close date. Last week he told us we should expect to be finished mid-Nov to first of December. That means we need to get PACKING! 

This is my KITCHEN! 

Moving to the living room:

Looking from the living room towards the stairs; there is a little block of drywall and the open section will have wood railing.

On the left: the art nook leading into the master. This will have closed storage on the bottom. A good place for photos, vases, etc. On the right: walking towards the second and third bedroom, or to the second bath.  The open areas under the ceiling vault are "plant shelves", and they are purely decorative. They both have outlets on a switch for Christmas lighting, etc.

The office! This room will be so relaxing. Lots of light. I spend a lot of time in our "home office" now whether it be on the computer, organizing files, recipes, etc. 

The entry way. This will be tiled, and there's a nice-sized coat closet on the right. I'd like to have some sort of cute little table under that window. 

The master! Love this room. Love love love it. As my mom pointed out, yes that's a window seat! I imagine this will be our cats' favorite spot!

See the 4-plug outlet on the left? Thanks to our brilliant realtor Terri who told Brett that it will save a lot of heartache if we're not fighting over outlets in the morning...!! 

Leading into the master closet. It was so fun for me to run between rooms before the drywall was up, and step from the closet to the living room. No more!!!

That's all for now! Its so amazing to know that we will have our first home in just a matter of weeks. I've already ordered adorable moving announcements and I really am going to try and start packing a couple boxes this week!!!
