Sunday I went back over to the house and worked for 4 hours cutting all my small pieces of glass tile. My fingers hurt for days afterwards because of all the little cuts I got from the glass. Lisa and my Mom loved it and my cheap ass can't be happier. I paid less then $40 in materials and I put roughly 6 hours of time into it.
Monday and Tuesday came and went with nothing major happening. I did have to look at one of the hearth stones they installed because it wasn't to Lisa's liking. Sure enough she got her way and they replaced the stone with a "better" replacement one.
Before I left on Wednesday, Lisa and I, meet with our superintendent to discuss our concrete patio idea. He wanted to get all the details before I left town just in case they decided to pour the patio while I was gone. The carpet was installed and I got to see it before I left town. Now it just needs to stay clean until we move in.
Lisa informed me on Thursday they formed up the patio and that it was ready to be poured. She wasn't able to get into the house since they had already locked up and went home for the day and I happened to have the house key with me in Texas. Guessing by the pictures I took today they might have installed the mirror frames in the bathrooms.
The only sure thing that would have happened on Friday was that the hardwood floors got the final coat of finish applied. Walking through the house today we can see some minor things that have been worked on but they are not finished yet. Almost looks like they started in the morning and when the hardwood floor guys showed up they had to leave everything and wait until Monday.
I was told they are going to do the first clean on the house on Monday but not sure they are far enough along to do that. Heck I might even be holding them up since I haven't finished up the tile back splash in the kitchen. I still need to grout and clean up and then I will be done. I know it won't take that much time but it was way to beautiful outside today to not spend it outside with the kids.
Here is what the tile back splash looks like minus the grout. Yes that is our exhaust fan laying on top of our stove/oven/range.
Master bedroom now has carpet.
Winter's room has carpet.
Front door was stained. God I love that brass knob!
Master bathroom now has a mirror frame. This one looks a tad better then the first one they installed.

Winter and Weston posing for the camera. They are super excited about there new patio. 13' x 29' should give them plenty of room to install a kiddie pool. Stay tuned since we are going to do something fun with this.

Floors finished and man they look good.
