Finally!

Whew - the 3rd replacement cabinet was good! Shortly after the cabinet guys showed up, the granite guys showed up. They are starting on the bathrooms and laundry room and then can move into the kitchen, once the cabinet guys are done. It looks like the cabinet guys are almost done.

The granite is set in the master bathroom. It looks really nice. I'll post pictures in my next post.

The mason should finish up the shop stonework today. He has another job to do/finish next week, so he won't be back for a week and then he thinks it will take 2-3 weeks to do the house outside stonework.

Pecan cabinet stain vs pecan door/trim stain sure is different, LOL. So, our cabinets are a lot darker then the pantry door and trim. It doesn't look terrible, but I think it will be ok. When we get our wood bar countertop that stain will end up looking a bit different, too, I'm sure. I'm not one where everything has to match exactly, anyway. Like my DD said, when she saw a picture, it kind of breaks it up, rather than all same exact stain color.

So, we ended up with all the bad cabinets, since there's nothing anyone else can do with them. We have two lower corner cabinets (those are the cracked ones), 1 upper cabinet (was wrong size) and 1 upper corner shelf unit (was also done wrong). We think we'll just use them up in our bonus room, someday when we can get to doing a little bar area up there.

We hung up our wind chimes on the back patio a few days ago. These were some chimes our old "good neighbor" had sent us a year or more ago. For our new house. Really big and nice wind chimes. They sound so pretty. Almost like church bells. They are called "Corinthian Bells".

That's all the update I have for today.
