Library Shelving...

Finally getting shelves up in the Library.  Note the blue tape markings for placement of future additions.  Beckie is so clever. ;-)

Lights Fantastic...

This is Lee installing track lighting in the Living room (but he couldn't have done it without with Beckie's help).  I'll add a photos of the finished product and other track, cable, and LED lighting we installed.  A big thanks to Jim down at Lights Fantastic on Greenville Ave for helping us select cool products like the monorail from TechLighting.

Cabinet Rework...

The cabinet rework that was (regretfully) needed was finally done in September 2011 after months of quotes and contractor interviews.  It was a mess around here for awhile.

Fans Installed...

Lee installed fans in the Master and Guest bedrooms just in time for a record heat summer.

Installing the Mirrors...

This was Lee installing mirrors in the Guest bath.

Welcome Home...

We moved-in and our first night in the new space was April 23rd; however, there is still much to-do.  Sorry I can't post more photos yet, because I haven't found where I packed the camera.  Even in a sea of boxes, the flow and feel of the space is everything we envisioned.  We haven't even started unpacking, but we'll post a video tour of the clutter as soon as we find the camera.

Almost Home...

Ready or not here we come.  Target move date is April 16th.  There is still work ongoing to finish the cabinets and a few details, but everything is basically ready.

Oven is Ready to Cook...

Vanity Update...

Mirrors will complete Guest Bath & Powder Room.  Faucets are final for Master Bath.
Oh yeah, still need those little handle thingys on the cabinets.  Details are difficult.

Shower Time...

Completed guest shower and master shower almost done.

Last of the Cabinets...

Doors and drawers to come.

Railing Complete...

Getting Ready to Rail...

Just need to finish the handrail along the steps.

Steps are Done...

Next comes the railing.

Step Right Up...

More than the Texas-Two-Step, but just a few steps at a time.

Kitchen Beginnings...

This is the first view of the kitchen cabinets being installed.

More Stairs...

The second "step" was to add the riser rods.  One more day of metal work and the next "step" will be to add the actual steps.  Here's the progress and a sample step to give an idea of placement.

Wine Room Lighting...

The chandelier is waiting for the wine to show up.

Stairway to ???...

Work has started on the stair stringers.  The existing structure will stay in place to support the new wood steps.  The first "step" in the process was to remove the existing steps.

Stair Railings...

Here's one of the stair railings nearing completion at the welding shop.
