The biggest news is....the garage is sided (minus the very top board on the eave sides, as those need to get cut to the proper width, and it is a 2-person job). Here's a photo of the very last side "in progress". Great work, Steve!!!!! (It was finished on a relatively beautiful day, too)
On the same day that the garage siding was completed by Steve, my dad installed 2 new windows in our basement. It's a huge improvement, even though we don't venture into "the dungeon" all that often. Thanks, Dad!
For those of you who haven't been to visit us within the past month or so, we've also gotten new entrance steps and a small deck by the entryway door (the door we use all of the time). My dad spent a weekend up here to put them in, under Steve's supervision. We really appreciate a new entrance. And Steve extended our gravel path all the way up to the steps, too. So it's like a facelift for the whole area.
And last, but not least, a non-house photo. Thanks, Janell & Andy, for the new coffee mugs! Here's their christening round of cappuccinos...made with our Trader Joe's espresso beans. We're really enjoying them!
