Construction, Part 8

The following pictures were taken about two weeks ago. As you can see, the drywall is installed and the first stucco layer has been applied. Currently, the bathroom, closet, bedroom, and entryway have all been painted (pictures coming soon!). We also have a second layer being applied to the outside to give it a smoother look and match the existing house as closely as possible. At some point in the future we are going to repaint the entire house but first things first.

The other big "milestone" in our construction was knocking out the window/wall to create some extra space in the kitchen. The pictures show the area shortly after the sledgehammer party and right now it too has been painted and looks very nice. We will probably put some sliding doors across the opening and get some type of shelving system in place to hold microwave, appliances, food, etc. The extra storage space will be a nice upgrade and
give us a chance to show off more of our granite countertops, which normally are covered with all the ingredients of Maura and Jane's latest delicacy. Not that I'm complaining :)
