The end of january

It's the end of January and our project is really winding down. 

The fence has been completely installed and stained. We love the look! It has been over 7 months since we were able to look at the patio furniture. This morning I removed the remaining tools and supplies and set up the couches. We forgot how comfortable they are! 

We had some remaining tile left over from the back porch so we asked Cesar if he could install it on the front porch. Now both of our porches match! 

What's left to do? Just some odds and ends. For example, the front door has been stripped of its paint. Now it needs to be sanded cleaned up and restained. The doors to the bathroom need to have their stoppers put on. The water filter was moved from an outside location to under the house. Now they need to patch up the hole created for the water heater when it was located outside. There's a few bricks that need to be put under the fence to keep the skunks out and a few more Bricks need to be placed around in order to finish up the planters. I need to reinstall the outdoor speakers and some wiring, and when we are finished, I will probably power wash the bricks. The cabinet handles for the kitchen finally arrived. The cabinet maker is stopping by next week to install them.. 

Other than that, are project is almost complete! Michelle is parents will be here in 2 weeks. We expect to be completely finished before they arrive.
