The drywall going up
The drywall in, the mud on and ready for texture
The new sliding glass door and a view of one of the windows. All of the kitchen windows are now counter top height. Not to mention they are all brand new so they won't leak.
The front walkway
Peter and David trying to take out a palm tree that has taken over the cable box and lifted a lot of the sidewalk. Peter says-Don't ever buy a fan palm and if you have one, get rid of it immediately!
The downstairs bathroom
Peter and my mom scraped the paint off. This bathroom will be textured today and ready for paint by Monday. Normally you would just paint over the wall, however the paint used on this bathroom peeled. We thought if we painted over it, it would basically fall off of the wall. So we're doing it right.
More of same bathroom
The view of the living room from the top of the stairs
The kitchen cabinets were ordered a few weeks ago. The appliances have been ordered. We originally were going to go really cheap for the kitchen and then redo it nicer later when we could. However, Frank convinced us as well as some others to just do it now. So, today we picked out a granite counter top that we liked as well as a back splash. But we're going to check out Home Depot and see if we can find the same things for a bit cheaper as well.
All pictures are from today except the very first one.

Looks like so much work, but progress is good. And I'm pretty sure we have a fan palm in our yard that's fairly small right now. My husband is trying to convince me to take it out. I was really hoping not to have to :(
It's looking good! Can't wait to come and see it!
