We've been working one day at a time on our house, getting things updated and replaced.
Mother's day weekend we planted lawn seed (after the prior weekend of tilling and prepping the ground). This what our grass looks like now! It's looking great and is coming in fast!
Here are a few of the things we've done up to this point:
- New lights in the kitchen/dining
- Windows are ordered and sitting in the driveway ready to be installed
- New grass/garden areas
- New 50 gallon water heater
- All new BLACK kitchen appliances
Here are our plans for the next month or so (more importantly, the kitchen is this weekend):
- Strip and re-stain the kitchen cabinets
- Take down wall cabinets, cut, reinstall, and move fridge
- Strip the vinyl floors with ammonia
- Install new kitchen faucet
- Install new kitchen counters (purchased last weekend at Home Depot; yes, I drove from there to Susanville with them hanging out of my trunk)
- Change out all cabinet hardware
- Install pull-out cabinet drawers
- Paint the kitchen (not this weekend)
- Pull off the paneling in our bedroom and paint (basically re-decorate with our new comforter set)
- Change lighting in playroom.
- Drapes in bedrooms (sigh)
- Have a House Warming Party!!
Feels overwhelming and exciting, but it's a relatively short list that we can tackle in a relatively short amount of time. I'll post more photos once things are accomplished.
