More! More! MORE!!!!

This house...it's like it grows by itself. Check it out...

First of all, there are all the light fixtures. We didn't even think we were getting a chandelier for the dining room (which, admittedly, we thought was a little cheap of them) but it turns out that we are. And it's pretty too!
The light fixtures are up in the bathrooms, also, like this beautiful cloudy glass and brushed silver number from the guest bathroom. We didn't turn it on because of my paranoia -- there were people working on the roof, and who knows what kind of electrical mayhem our one switch flick may have created? Yikes!

This isn't our roof, but is taken from our master bedroom window. And that's a mirror image of what was happening on our roof at the same time. Poor guys. I'm sure it's quite hot up there! Luckily, it was almost time for their lunch break. The chow cart came by with it's sing-song horn.


And here's the cabinetry, all boxed up and ready to go. By Sunday, I have a feeling this house is going to look quite different. Crazy! It's like a weed, growing and growing and growing....but a pretty weed like a dandelion. Or maybe a day lily.


And here were our first house guests! Beth and Steve gave us some very good pointers on the walkthrough, pointing out little things that would only take the builder a moment to fix, but would be a pain for us. I plan to catch every single one, and take up all of the foreman's time when I go in next week. If anyone else has some pointers on walkthroughs, please send them my way! Good advice is always welcome...just make sure it's good. :)
