You have to keep in mind that we are still working on stuff as we have time, so most all of the after pictures I've been posting are "mostly" after pictures. The big project lately has been the fence and planting new grass. The fence lacks one front section, but John had to get the grass seed planted before it was too late. So the rest of the fence will come later.
Meanwhile, the inside still hasn't seen many of the finishing touches I'm eagerly awaiting - things like bathroom light fixtures, all the new outlets and light switches, and a light in our shower! I've gotten used to taking dark showers now though.
In case you don't remember how horrendous things looked before, here's the original slide show of pictures.

Here's the master bedroom from the doorway.
The view from the bathroom.
This is my little area where my computer is for now. I had the internet man install wireless internet and my plan was to set up the desktop in John David's room since he has a desk. After going to all the trouble to hook up my computer in his room I realized that there's no wireless card. So now I sit on the floor in the corner of my room.
Here's the bathroom entrance view from our bedroom. We have some really nice slatted doors that still need to go up. Also, can you tell that there's no base trim under the cabinets? And no drawer fronts on two of the drawers? Yeah. I'm patiently waiting. My patience is getting us our mantle for free though and that's worth about $400 so it's okay.
Won't new light fixtures be so pretty? =)
See what I mean about taking dark showers? I guess the people who lived here the last 30 years never wanted to see. Weird.
The cabinets still need the gloss finish, but again, we're waiting for our cabinet man to do some things first.
This is our tub and the new window. I really don't like that picture there because it seems too small for the space, but I had it on hand so for now it works.
Here's the ceiling fan in our room.
John put remote controls with all of the ceiling fans in the house. I love this little luxury!
