day forty-eight

Tuesday

Chris showed up at 8:30am (yay!!!!) and got started on finishing with the installation of the baseboards.

The part on the bottom right corner has to wait until they install the newel posts/fix the stair. 

*Newel post update: they are supposed to arrive Friday! No work will happen over the weekend with us hosting two big events, but hopefully Tuesday morning we can get going on the banisters



Chris then installed all of the knobs. The pulls will hopefully go in tomorrow- I need to get some longer screws for him. 


The electrician came and finished installing sockets where we need them, the electrical for the double ovens, microwave and undercabinet lights. He also installed our pendants over the island. I LOVE them!

(I had fallen in love with these months ago and Dave liked them too, except for the price... In June we happened to find them on clearance when the Great Indoors was going out of business. That was a happy day!)

First one in


Then two...


All three! The drywall hasn't been fixed yet, and we are painting the ceiling ourselves, 
so that will have to happen later. 
(If you come over please don't look at the ceiling, 
just the pretty lights!)


All lined up. They will look centered with the island once the counter tops are installed... overhang etc...


Love them!


And the under-cabinet lighting :)


Counter tops are going in Thursday morning. Lots of people coming to work tomorrow... 
It is finally feels like it is getting close-
