I wish this was.......

I wish this was the final post on the home addition, but there is still the rest of the retaining wall and final grade to do outside.  The weather and subcontractor haven't been able to sync up to complete that part of the project.  That is outside and since it's winter we don't spend too much time out there.

Inside there are only a couple of paint touch ups and an one additional electrical socket to finish.  So close to be officially done inside.

Now to the Photos.

The railing for the stairs.



We like the rot iron look and went with that.






It was so nice to be able to get the table back in the house from the garage.  We could physically eat in the house!!!!



The double ovens are amazing.  The kitchen is much more functional then it was before.



Love the Fridge too.



The Mudroom cabinets turned out beautifully.  Megan's vision and our Carpenter Ron did an amazing job.




Just picture doors on the top and side cabinets.  For some reason I don't have a picture of that.

The drinking fountain is nice to have.  Especially when the boys want a drink, I tell them to go to the drinking fountain.



Here is some of the exterior work that was done.  The beginning of the retaining wall so they could do the back patio and stairs to the basement.













It was nice to get that porch done so we could start stacking wood and use the fireplace during the winter.

Here is our cabinet at the bottom of the stairs that we'll use as a game closet.





And some finishing touches.  Like a mirror and a big clock, the family picture.





Eating Tamales.


A new rug.  Don't remember the name, but Megan likes it, so I'm happy.



We also bought some bar stools that we liked. Couldn't be happier with the results.  Love the herringbone pattern in the back splash.




Doesn't that fire feel cozy?


Overall, we love the addition.  It took our whole summer and endurance to get to where we are now, but we are enjoying our new setup.
