keepin' on

After such a big push for the last two weeks, it was nice to have a little breather and get back to a more normal-busy week. Inside electrical and plumbing are just about finished. Our downstairs laundry/ultility area is about ready for the washer/dryer.

wash/utility area (no this is not our washer, we're not that old school, washer/dryer will be on the other side of the wall)

Basement windows have been replaced.

Kitchen cabinets were delivered. Not sure when they will be installed, but here's a sneak peak:

shaker style, color is vanilla

 And we have our first piece of furniture in the house. Our reclaimed barnwood hutch...when we showed my parents they said it will be nice when it's finished :) I guess it's good we all don't have the same taste.

The boy's room floor is finished, so their room turned into a playroom to entertain them while we work... for a little while anyways.

And harvest season continues. Not all things turn out how we envision. Most of our garden had a good year, squash is amazing, but unfortunately we ended up with late blight on our tomatoes... BIG bummer as these are our favorite staples for canning. I stocked up with tomatoes at the farmer's market, froze them and will get back to canning when life settles down.
