Long time posting..

Sorry it has been awhile but things have been busy.
The support poles are out, a new wall is up (new pics of that to come soon) the ventilation pipes are in and as I write this they are putting in the window ledges. If I remember to bring my camera, I will post some pics of all of that stuff this next weekend at the latest.
Since I have no photos yet, Here is a cute video of Mattia to make up for it =)

Good stuff, bad stuff

Well the bad news is that the kitchen counter top is a no-go since it will be way too much $$$. So we have to look at some Okite (and hope that it will be affordable) or wood.
Also bad news is that the plaster of the outside of the original building is chipping off which means that we will have to redo the entire house and not just the addition. More money and more time. Oh well, I guess at least we are finding this out now instead of later on.

Good news is that the roof is up and they are putting in the ventilation tubes as I write this =). Also the window frames are in and the wall between the living room and dining room has been taken down.
Living room looking from the outside into the dining room. (does that make sense?)

Tiles, etc

We went floor shopping last week and found the flooring for the house as well as the mosaic wall tiles for the bathrooms. And then yesterday we went down to pick out our kitchen counter =).
I did not get the name of the tiles for the bathroom so I will have to just wait and get a pic of them when they get here which will be around November.

Anyways, the flooring is by Rex, in their Leaves collection and it is called Nickel. In the photo it is kinda dark, but it is a bit lighter than in the photo. Also since in is porcelain, designed to look like slate, no two tile is the same so that it looks natural.





The counter top is granite and is called 'Brown Cabernet'




*these are not pics that I took,but pics that I found elsewhere on the net.
