We got to the house last night just before 9pm and were surprised to find it illuminated! The tile crew was still there working and they had the lights on. It was really exciting to see it lit up at night - almost like someone lived there! We still did a quick tour of the very dark exterior area before going inside and found that our siding had been finished around the sun porch and the garage doors! There is still the section around the lower level door and the section around the front door to be completed. I'm looking forward to the day when my eye isn't drawn directly to all the white Tyvek around the front entrance!!
On the inside, there were plenty of thrilling changes. The tile in the master bath was all hung and the crew was cleaning up when we arrived. It looks truly amazing and we can't wait to see it once it's been grouted. More trim has been hung around the house and there are even baseboards that have started to go up!
We then went upstairs and used the headlamp to peer around at the changes up there. Just as we were about to head out, I tried a light switch for fun and lo and behold, there was light!! After getting over our initial embarrassment of not thinking to try that sooner, we ran around the house playing with all the switches to see which ones did stuff and which ones are still waiting for the decorative fixtures stored in our apartment living room. We had a blast exploring the place and can't wait to check it out later this week - the painting and staining is supposed to start soon!!
