OK, so I couldn't stand it. I had to post this picture. I wanted to wait until that last little bit was finished around the oval. That replacement window was supposed to be delivered today and we'd get that last little bit finished, but it didn't show up. GRRRR!!!!
On a good note, we did have our second framing inspection. We got dinged again, but just one thing and it's minor. I went inside to look and can't believe we missed it. It was one of those "DOH!" moments. We did get the go ahead for beginning insulation. WOO HOO!!!!! After that, it's dry wall!
I've enjoyed the learning process of this project very much. It's been interesting and we've created some good memories for us and the kids. We've worked hard to create something that we should ALL be proud of. But it's been like walking through a tunnel and now I can finally see a small light showing me that we're almost to the end.
Regarding the house;
Looking at wrought iron railings and black shutters. At the suggestion of Sessy, I'm going to look at batten board shutters.
There will be 2 ceiling fans on the porch and canned lights on either side, flood lights off the front corners and sconces on either side of the door.
We're thinking a dark oak stain on the door.
I'm going to post some old pictures along with some recent to show the progress. It's kind of shocking to go back and look at pics from the beginning of this. It sure has changed a lot!
