House progress

This house has become quite the saga for us...we closed on the home on November 13th....yipee!  We then fired our contractor 2 weeks later when it was apparent he did not have our best interests in mind (that is a saga all by itself:)  We hired a great new contractor who we absolutely love.  Add in ANOTHER 4 weeks delay for switching contractors and getting him lead base paint certified (even though our entire house was tested and there is not one spec of lead base paint - gotta love bank regulations) and then we finally started work on Jan 11.  Here is the progress so far (as of Saturday - haven't been up there this week yet)...it is getting there slowly but surely.
Painting should be completely finished within the next couple days (ps the box light in the kitchen did get removed after this pic was taken)
Our new front door
It is getting there - this whole process has been exciting, frustrating, heart breaking, happy, joyful, and completely crazy...we are so incredibly blessed and can't wait to FINALLY call this place home:)  More pictures to come again soon!
