All is done, except for carpet

The house is almost done! Yeah! The only thing left to be installed is the carpet. Then it is on to cleaning up house so it will be sparkling for us to move in.
A view of the Formal living room. The rest of the trim was put in. And the light fixtures, light switches, and outlets were also installed.

Here is the half bath on the main floor.

The kitchen. I still have an issue with the full tile back splash. The full tile back splash was not one of the standard upgrades for us to choose. We asked specifically for that to be done. Now that the vent hood has been installed, we are wondering if when we asked for a full back splash, if the builders thought we did not want it extended all the way up. So we now have sent an email to our realtor for him to straighten out.

Here is the kitchen sink, I know exciting huh? Jeff says I was in his way when he took the picture so that is why the picture is not centered.

Main bathroom upstairs

Master bathroom shower

Master bathroom vanity area. We opted not to upgrade to the double sink vanity. I actually would rather have more counter space than two sinks.

Well, next week may be the last post with house updates. And even at that, all we will have to show will be the carpet. It will be strange when we won't have any need to go up and see our house. This has been our tradition every Friday for 13 weeks now. Usually I pick Jeff up from work at 4:30pm (and we leave his car at his work), we go look at our house, and take pictures. Then we go over to Jeff's parents house and eat dinner with them and every week we take turns cooking dinner. This has been a really fun tradition, the only thing I will miss is not having to drive so far to get to either of our parents house. (Jeff's parents house is about ten blocks away and my parents house is about a five minute drive)
