The Completion of the House

The month of December was super exciting to watch day by day something being completed inside the house. We went by practically every single day, because each day something new was being done. By the end of December the house was complete and we closed on our beautiful new home on December 30th.
Below is the progression of the work that took place during the month of December.
 Towards the beginning of December the cabinets were installed.
 In the kitchen we went with what some refer to as the "tea stained" look of the cabinets and then a dark island.
 On both sides of the fireplace we have built in cabinets to store movies, dvd players, etc.
 A few days after all the cabinets were installed the counter tops were in :)
This is a sink in the upstairs kid bathroom area.
 Kitchen counters
 While lots of work was being done on the inside the outside was also being painted.
 Towards the middle of December the lights were installed. These are the lights about the island in the kitchen. (My favorite lights in the house)
 After the lights then comes the floors!
 Followed by the tile backsplash in the kitchen.
Glass shower doors are up in the bathroom and we have a completed bathroom now :)
While all of this work was being done inside the outside was also getting some love! We now have grass, bushes, a stained front door ( and not seen in this picture but the stairs were also stained and the slats across the bottom were painted white to match the porch).
 
At the end of December we had a completed house that we were ready to move in to and be able to call it our own. Slowly, we are getting things unpacked and put away, decorations on the walls, and turning our house into our HOME!
Once things aren't quiet as messy inside I will update with some final pics!
