The million dollar shot


Isn't this just the greatest picture?  

This is my hubby, Jason.  Our friend, Todd, took the pic.  

It was fishing, fishing, fishing for the 2 nights Todd met us in Galveston.  

We're now back home.  Todd went back to Colorado & we're back in Cypress.  

I couldn't wait to get back to see how "Magic Week" went at the house.  Yes, there were things done; but nothing magical.  I'll have to post more pics of the house.  We have the black tile in the shower (finally right on the 3rd attempt!), 99% of the travertine is grouted, the granite is all in, the onyx is now on the (outside of the) island & the oven hood is built.  

So.... what else needs to be done?   A LOT!  I'm just getting so antsy!

My cabinets are here!!!

First things first.....
Did everyone have a bueno Cinco de Mayo?  We did!  Last night I made Margaritas, Tostadas, Guacamole & Mac&Cheese (hey, Mac should be its own food group!) 

     

On Friday, when I got the call that my cabinets were at my house, I couldn't get home fast enough!  BUT, this is what I came home to..... a garage full of boxes & everyone gone!  (Evidently, it was payday :(

Atleast, on Monday, they started installing.  It seemed like a puzzle putting everything together!
    
This is the master bathroom.


Also, the A/C man showed up (installed our furnace? and one of the 3 a.c. units?) - Interesting?

Another picture of our door.... I can't wait until its framed in properly & the glass is put in!

I'm not sure if anyone remembers from older posts, that there was an actual POST in the middle of this wall.  It was used as a load bearing post... but I HATED it.  It would block my view from the kitchen into the living room.  After much nagging & complaining.  They tore at the post & added a beam across (you can see how the ceiling comes down).  This was a HUGE beam -poor guys that had to install it (plus have the sheetrockers back) - but atleast I'm happy :)



We have a house full of workers today.  YIPPEE!!!!
Have a Totally Terrific Tuesday!
