Current Status

Okay - I know it's been about a month since my last post.  Progress is still being made, but the changes are not as dramatic now.  So...be patient with me.

I'm just going to post some current photos and not try to bring everyone up to speed.  We're currently slated to be moving in by the second weekend of April (which means that we will have lived in the bunkhouse for 12 months by that time).  Claustrophobia is setting in.

The painters are in this week, so some of the pictures are of cabinets / windows that are covered with plastic.  Also - the staircase has been removed and is being prepared for stain.  The front entrance is shaping up, and the welder is here this week putting the metal in place.  It's been an incredible experience so far.

The upstairs hasn't changed since the last post, so these pictures are of the downstairs.  Here are some pictures from the master suite area.

I have 3 sets of antique doors~~one going into the master bedroom, one going into the master bathroom, and the last one going into the master closet.  I've had these antique doors for years, and the trim guys did a tremendous job preparing them for use.  I'm super excited about them.

 The trim guys are working on bending the wood for the frames.

This is a picture of the bathtub in the master bathroom.  It's from a few weeks back and is completely framed now.  The window behind the tub will allow us to look outside while we soothe our muscles from working on the farm.

Here are some pictures from the entrance and the gate.

This is a picture of the dining room doors (and the door to the study is the same).  The first picture shows the door, and the second shows one of the doors that has been painted.

I'm so excited about the staircase.  I was crushed when I found out that they had to take it down so that they could stain it.  But..It Will Be Back!  It was so cool watching them bend the wood so that it curved up to the upstairs landing.  These trim guys are truly amazing. 

The first picture is a picture of the staircase rail being bent.  I can't get my current staircase picture to work, so y'all will just have to wait.

These are the sidelights by the front door.

Here is the mantel over the fireplace in the den.

Here is a picture of the island cabinet in the kitchen.

Here are the cabinets in the study.

Here is how the den looks right now.  What a mess, but it will be cool once these cabinet doors are rehung...

Okay - that's all I have for now.  Thanks for checking in to see our progress.
