Asking

Would you pray with us? We are seeing the light at the end of tunnel, the one we've been in for about 2 years now. We are trying to move in to the house by June. We are asking that you specifically pray for us to meet this goal and that the rest of our renovation would go as smooth as God would have it. We are trusting that it is all in His hands, we know His timing is perfect. He has provided for us in countless ways on this journey. We are thankful for loving and gracious parents that have supported and helped us along the way.

We still have quite a few projects to complete before moving in:
1. finishing up the tile work in our bathrooms/laundry area
2. widening the laundry area doorway so that our washer/dryer can fit ;)
3. refinishing the hardwood floors upstairs
4.stairwell/banister
5. trim work
6. kitchen cabinets
7. install remainder of flooring downstairs
8. Painting

There are more I'm sure, but I think I hit the main ones. This is so we can at least move into the house. Once we get in, there will be lots of little projects inside and out that we will tackle.
If you feel led, would you take one of these projects and pray for it specifically? We appreciate you coming alongside us and carrying this burden. We know that through Him, all things are working toward the good.

Tile and Trim

Mike has been working on the tile in our laundry room and 1/2 bath the past two days. This is his first tiling project and he's really done a great job. This is a pic of the laundry room. The window in this room still has the old trim under it, that will be replaced with the new.

This is the upstairs hallway. Our contractor has put up more molding. It still has to be caulked and painted (it is only primed). We chose to keep the molding the same as the original with 4" trim around doors and windows and 6" baseboard. I'm loving the simplicity of it!

I wanted to give you another look at our doors with the finished trim around them.
These are Emma's closet doors.

There Was Light!

It has been a long road but we now have electricity! What a crazy, long and drawn out ordeal that was and boy did it feel great flipping that switch and seeing luminance.

The doors and trim are in!

Our contractor began hanging them on Wednesday.

The girls enjoyed playing in Emma's closet.

So excited to be seeing progress!
