Week 7

Wow. What a week. We knew at some point the pace would pick up after 3 weeks of small, but important jobs being accomplished but we had no idea things would move so quickly all at once! Please enjoy as I attempt to take you through our week.
We were initially told the windows would be delivered on Tuesday but they came on Wednesday instead. Thanks to Roger, who stayed home from work, for cat duty. With no windows, we knew they both make their escape! We now have brand new windows throughout the entire house!!

What we didn't know, was that the cabinets were being delivered on Wednesday, with installation scheduled for Thursday and Friday. 

We had cabinet pieces EVERYWHERE!!

On Friday, the mason arrived to retrofit the brick on the front of the house.

As I said, it was a busy week at the Dial's. Here are a couple more pics of what it looks like now that all the workers have gone home for the weekend.

On a side note, we had an open space in the living room that had some funky shelves in it. Neither Roger nor I liked it and even considered closing the space completely. Thanks to our friend, Judi, who suggested we add another cabinet, this is what we got. It's perfect!

What started in our minds as a kitchen remodel has definitely turned into a much bigger project. We have torn down walls, a fireplace and chimney, added windows and a gas fireplace, painted additional rooms, installed recessed lighting and we certainly aren't finished. More to come next week!
