New House: drywall, exterior

Our house is coming along!  In fact, it's flying along.  We are supposed to close on August 23rd, but it looks like it might be sooner if everything continues to stay on schedule.  This week the exterior stone is going up, and the finish carpenter is coming.  In a few weeks the mantel and cabinets will be going in, and I'm so excited to see how it all looks together!  Here are some pics of the progress:
Exterior - the hardy board, stucco and trim are done, and so are the soffit and facia, except for the ridge caps.

Ty and Randy made custom shelves in the garage, and they'll be painted along with the rest.  Also, the small bench will be attached to the wall and will have bead board and hooks above it for everyone to hang things on.

Most of the tile in the house is this type - this is the entry.

Ty has almost finished board and batten in Griffin's room.  It will be painted similarly to our last house.

Coffered ceiling in the master bedroom.

Master bath with tile tub surround.

The shower is getting there - the trim is granite, the same that the counter tops will be. 

HUGE decorating shelf - I can't even think of what I'll put up there to fill it all.

So that's the house so far.  I can't believe that in a month and a half it will be done, and we'll be moving again!

Super exciting! You'll have to get some big apothecary jars to fill the decoration space. So fun!
