I have cabinets! The kitchen cabs are in. The island will be placed after the flooring is installed. They are oak with a "natural stain," so it brings out the grain. Over the desk is a pigeon hole organizer...basically another place to stash things and forget they are there. They also completed the first floor bathroom tile and the master shower base tile. Because of the floorplan, they could only lay half of the laundry room floor or else we couldn't have entered the house over the weekend. Once the front door is operational, they can complete the rest.

Final grading of the back yard is done Friday. With SNOW in the forecast for Tuesday, I was so worried, but now the fence contractor can get started anytime. Yes, it will be a muddy, muddy mess come spring! We're spreading grass seed before the winter in hopes of at least a little bit of spring germination.

Pat and Denise, the electricians, spent the day Saturday wiring the garage, switches and outlets throughout the house. They sent me home with a shopping list for next weekend. By the way, they are Grandparents for the second time, CONGRATS.
