ALL DONE!!!!

Well, the house is just about done! Just a few finishing touches here and there, but for the most part it is FINITO!!!!! Right now we are working on building a new deck and some desperately needed landscaping, but that should be done in a few weeks too! YIPPEE!!!! In the meantime, here are some pics of the house. I apologize, but they are all in random order cuz I can't get blogger to move them around. Anyway, this has been a year-long project for Mr. BK and I and there was A LOT of blood, sweat and tears along the way, but it was well worth it! I ABSOLUTELY love our "new" house and I hope you do too!

The existing kitchen.

For some reason I CAN'T get this photo to move down. So, this is a pic of our new shower in the remodeled spare bathroom.

The existing spare bathroom.

The old dining room (it's gone now and a spare bedroom is there).

The existing family room (that's the deck behind that wall where our addition was built).




The old eat-in-kitchen (it's gone now and a new dining room is there).


The new ceiling in existing family room. It used to come to a point with a ceiling fan and a skylight. Now we have rope lights up inside that cove.

The new pantry (this might be my FAVORITE room).

More ceiling design from the new dining room.

The new mudroom area with a walk-in coat closet (the new laundry room is down the hall on the left and that back door leads out to the deck).

New tile floors in the kitchen and hardwood in the living room.
