Latest Update

We went up to New Hampshire this weekend and brought all of our light fixtures there for when the electrician is ready to install them all: 

Ceiling fan for great room (living room/kitchen):

Light for over the kitchen island:

Our kitchen design: 


Kitchen location: Will be on the right side of the great room! 


Looking out from the kitchen area: 


Kitchen will be on the other side of this framing: 

The kitchen cabinets and countertops have been ordered and will be delivered in 1-2 weeks! We need to order our gas stove, range top microwave, refrigerator and dishwasher within the next few days! Our contractor said the dishwasher isn’t as important as it can be installed any time, but I would rather order all of it now. 

Exterior lights; 2 for the farmer’s porch and 2 for the deck: 




Boxes with lights inside of them stacked neatly in the basement next to the generator pad! 



Most of the snow has melted! Our driveway is a mess at the moment, especially where the trench was for well water and electrical lines, which had to be run over the winter months. But our site guy told us it would be a mess this spring. He held off on the finish work so he could see where the most gravel and drainage are needed. The driveway will actually be about a foot higher than it is now. It will be built up for less of a slope from the road. There will be a lot more gravel and sand brought in to finalize it! Can’t wait to see it when it’s done! The generator pad and generator will be installed after the final site work is completed. 









The generator, which will be installed on the left side of the house: 


I used the bathroom in the basement for the first time this weekend! So nice to have a working toilet and sink! I bought some supplies too! 

This bathroom will also be where the washer and dryer are, which will be delivered this coming Saturday! Once the plumber hooks up the gas line to the gas dryer, and the water lines and drain for the washer, we will be able to do laundry! 










The washer and gas dryer will be on the left wall! 


Our washer and gas dryer! 






First floor bathroom: 







Second floor bathroom: 


I also was able to go out on the deck for the first time this weekend! Amazing views! 













I also bought a Keurig coffee maker, k-cups, non-dairy creamer (no refrigeration needed), sugar, splendor, paper coffee cups and spoons and a little plastic table to place set it up for the crew and for us when we’re up there. 


Our new table saw! We bought this a few weeks ago and our contractor has been using it and just loves it! We bought the stand for it too, which makes it easy to move around! 



We also left a couple of extra horses a few weeks ago. We have 6 of them here so we still have 4 of them here in CT. 

Remaining photos!
