4 months after breaking ground: it's getting there!

What a beautiful Sunday it is!  We went to church this morning & enjoyed breakfast there since it is first Sunday.  Now Patrick & Mallory are taking a nap while I've been cleaning & doing laundry.  I don't know why, I just could not make myself do any cleaning or laundry yesterday.

It has been exactly four months since we started on our house & here is where we are at today with it - still working on trim.  There have been a few setbacks with the trim.  Our contractor's dad is doing the trim & he fell off a spiral staircase (not ours) while putting the railing up.  Therefore, he was out of work for a little while.  Then, they had a death in their family & didn't work for a few days.  Probably a week went by with nothing done, but setbacks are to be expected.

Here are pictures taken today:

It is really hard to get a picture of this room, it's long & narrow.

Washer & dryer will go on opposite wall

& the outside...where nothing has really changed in a long time.

So, hopefully within the next two months I will be done having to go outside to do laundry.  I will never take my indoor laundry room or dishwasher for granted :)
