so far so good

Construction work continues to move along smoothly with no major roadblocks (yet). If pictures are worth a thousand words, I'll assume you'd rather see some highlights rather than read my roughly written inadequate descriptions. Here we go:

Thanks to some wisdom and encouragement from my parents, we decided to open up the kitchen into the adjacent den even more than we intended (mainly for costs, but we now think it's well worth it.) Originally, we were going to double the width of the doorway (shown in pink), but will now open up all the way across the sink (shown in red).

The basement has now been waterproofed and the walls were framed.

Hard to believe this little section made up the most significant costs of this whole project. Installed sump pump and plumbing for a full bathroom in the basement

Found this little gem on Amazon for the master bathroom, and thought it was too good to be true ($1,200 and includes marble counter top, sinks and faucets.) Pleasantly surprised to find it all in one piece, decent quality and a great fit!
