some finishing touches (kind of)...

concrete in the drying process - large, huh?

cabinets in plastic wrap still. but they're there...

our fireplace needed some refacing. we resued bricks from an old building.

the porch has been poured!

to ensure the house doesn't sink down (8 inches!!) again, we've had a porch poured around the house. it's an amazing area in the front - pete and i are planning on having many meals on the porch in the nice weather. the porch wraps around the house to the back landing. sooooo nice. and a great color. here are some process pics:

stoop in back outside of newest french doors

wrapped around to new french doors

front porch - only about half of it - it's huge



adding the color - a nice greenish-brown

Trying this out…

I just noticed the word option of starting a blog post. Just checking it out – way easier to blog secretly while at work if the screen looks like a word doc, right?
