next week...

That's when we're moving in...  hmmm.  Well, we don't have many big things left.  The floors will be finished tomorrow, and the countertops will go in on Friday.  Over the weekend, our HVAC will be installed and our electrical will get finished.  Then next week, the plumber installs the sinks/toilets/etc. and we're ready to move in.  Holy crap!

Here's a picture of what our countertop will look like - they templated it, then I picked the parts of the stone for each template.  I'm very excited about how that will look.  The rectangle at the bottom will be the bar.



I don't have any pictures of the floor color yet, but here's the bare floor.  It's amazing how nice our floor is!  It's 3/4 cut (or something like that) which gives each board a lot of character which is accentuated by the color.
I chose the color on the right (these were test patches), but I don't think you can really tell how nice the color is.  We saw it today, though, and it looks fantastic!!
And here's my newest nephew, Daniel Patrick Weller (although that name is still subject to change).  He is so beautiful!  He was born yesterday, but Phil and I went to see him today.  I love him already!

So we still have a lot to do at the house, but most of it (besides what's listed above) can be done after we move in.  I think it will be a while before the house is finished, but it will certainly be livable.  And visit-able.
