Our plumbing rough-in begins this week so we decided to mix things up a little with the kitchen design:) We are lucky we thought of these things before it went too far. I met Mike from Home Depot a few days ago to get the kitchen measured for cabinets and realized that our eat-in bar was too short. Extending the bar would have cut into the walk through space into the kitchen too much, so off to the drawing board. We met with a kitchen designer who sells Merrillat cabinets and redesigned the layout with the bar in the kitchen and moved the refrigerator and pantry to where the bar had been. The result is more open space, better seating for quick meals or hanging out and the addition of a center island without spending any more money. We are going to go back to Home Depot and have them draw up the changes as well and see where we get the best price.
Today we finished up shopping for all remaining electrical, cable, and phone wiring supplies. We also bought our tub/shower for the second bath, and whirlpool and shower for the master bath. The bathroom supplies will be delivered for the rough-in.
Tomorrow we begin adding some dead wood to prepare ahead for sheet rock and working on getting some trash ready to burn.
Monday we place order for siding materials.
We had hoped to be working on insulation by this weekend but had to make other plans because rough-ins are running a little slow.
Hoyt and Judy came up this evening and are staying for several weeks to help us out and visit.
