BUSY BUSY BUSY!!

Since Sean was there, alot has gotten done! Still alot to do but... A little sometimes goes a long way!

1-We have railings!! Yay!!
2-We have cabinets or GABINAYS...en espanol!! (still trying to decide whether i love them...)
3-We have interior doors...ok now its time to jump for joy!! (doors are exactly what i wanted....we i mean they struggled with this for a while)

So here you go, a little peek...

...i think this is the laundry room door...


...one of the bedrooms downstairs...


...now here the colors are off because of the sunlight etc... and size is hard to gauge...backsplash is a pale blue glass tile like the "blog" background... all the cut outs look small but i guess i will find out on tuesday when we get down there!!


and these, as you can tell are the railings...sean didnt want wood...im kind of glad because i hate the smell of pledge so...we decided on this after seeing something similar...

ok i bet you're thinking the same thing...what is with the little roundy things on the bottom? perhaps a type of adornment? finial?...hmmm all i know not my fave...but whatev... it took long enough to get here im not even gonna bother with this!!

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL DAY!

As the cabinets go in and the doors are stained...the sun is drying the paint!

HOW AWESOME IS THIS?!??!!

OK... 10 months to get to this point and this is Seans' pride and joy! He chose the windows, the colors of the tint on the windows and the same with the door...and i have to say i was a bit hesitant on the color choices of both the framing and tint...

This is before installation... obviously! And, I was still a bit unsure of the color...

This was after installation and i have to say i spent alot of time worrying about nothing!! Looks pretty cool...eh?? The spiral staircase still has to be painted and that too will be the color of the house so it will all blend.


If you look closely along the top (or if you click on the pic it enlarges) of the wall you can see the outline of the paint. The blue with the brown against it, is just truly amazing!But this is the best part!! And Sean baby, you did a DANG GOOD JOB!!

HOLY FRIJOLES!!

I don't really know where to start, but, oh my how things have changed!! May 05 2008 (yes i know what day that is...) was our demolition/ground breaking day and here we almost done!! The house (at least the top floor - outside) is painted!! YIPPEEE!!! Today they are painting the spiral stair case and hopefully the baluster railings! The color on the picture is a bit off it is definitely less green and a paler shade of blue but i guess the clouds through everything off... Either way we have PAINT!! YAY!!

Sean is there now probably to calm the GC and the Project Manager, since I am sure you can imagine when it comes down to details and time management, all things are done way way different in Rincon, than in I am used to in New York. But here on your left is a picture of the side of the house where our bedroom and bathroom are. At the top the underside of the overhang is done in a contrasting brite white...I just cannot wait to see it done! Sean is completely over joyed right now especially since the "BIG" door is in!!

CLIMBING THE STAIRWAY TO HEAVEN...

Heaven on earth that is...But to get here...(ps the other side is ocean view...)


you will have to climb these...

...althought they seem kind of spindly, (is that a word?) they are solid iron. Either way it beats that rickety old hand made (yes hand made) ladder that they have been using. I tried a number of times to climb it but, decided against even though Sean made it up and down a bunch of times.
With my luck, if anyone was going to fall off it, it could and would only be me!
