There is a gaping hole in my front yard

They began the demo of our front steps today...
 And we now have a hole where our front steps once were. During the excavation they found the footings for the original cheek walls...that bobcat is making quite the racket outside my window. Oh yea, that is a porch handrail that you see in the photo below! We have so much to catch up on, but I seem to have misplaced the charger and cord that transfers the photos to the computer. When I told Nate that, he just smiled and said he wasn't surprised. Yay for conditioning husbands!

This morning...

...I asked Miguel to move all the new spindles in my new handrail 1". I'm a subcontractor's worst nightmare. Photos later.

(semi) renovation progress

A mostly photo-story of our house...
Yay! No more worthless upper cabinets! Boo...kitchen still a disaster...
dining room primed
ahhhmazing custom hand-rail for stairs is in!! Goes in Monday!
Hallway was primed, then the plaster repair touched up, now needs another primer coat...can lights, smoke detectors, outlets (upstairs) are all in...too bad we have no fixtures to put up :)
Trim work underway on columns of stairs...
 Upstairs is about 70% primed...

February was a big month. Nate turned 26 (yesterday), I turned 25, and I started a new job (why I have officially disappeared from here). Looking forward to warmer weather, longer days, and progress on the house. I'll check back in soon...
