House Updates

My Bathroom is FINALLY finished!! Dad installed the mirror and shower door Monday. I can finally see myself. It makes the bathroom look so much bigger. I'm glad I waited and splurged for the full mirror instead of two framed mirrors. I like this look so much better.
I've been taking a shower in our shower even without a shower door, but tonight I will finally be able to take one without water going into the tub. The silicon is try, I cleaned the glass, and it's ready for use. Maybe kev will take one in here now and I will only have one shower to clean.
I did all the touch up painting Monday. I peeled/sanded the paint off the trim piece on the back doors for some reason the paint peeled. Dad isn't sure why. It's never happened to him before. I'm sure it's the painter and that would be me!  The doors are the only painting that is left and I have to get more paint tomorrow. We wanted to make sure it didn't peel before we purchased more. I plan on doing that before April 5th. I'm having a baby shower here and I want everything finished. I've been nesting this week and I'm not even pregnant. Dad finished the chimney (I don't have a picture) last weekend. I think the only thing left to do before the appraiser can come out and we can close on the house is putting the hardware on the pocket doors and caulking the baseboards.

And a Roof

They finished the roof up today! Back of the house. Front of the house. They use these to hold the plywood together.

House Exteriors

 I spend most of my free time these days staring at the freaking computer looking for ideas for our house. There is a site Houzz . It's my new addiction. If you haven't ever explored it check it out. You can type in anything dealing with houses and get thousands and thousands of pictures to browse through. I look at EVERYTHING and pin the things I like on Pinterest. This makes it so easy to go back and review favorites. I have several boards dedicated to various rooms and the outside of the house. My focus these days is on the exterior. Hopefully in the next two weeks I will have a house pad and be ready to frame the house. I  know that I want a metal roof (not sure what color), cedar columns, stone, and cedar siding/shingles. not sure about color combination, how much siding or how much stone, and the front porch and walkway (the front yard will be pretty steep). I'm on Spring Break this week so I plan on visiting some lumber yards so I get a closer look at certain materia...
