Making the Pieces Fit

Things are finally coming together nicely. After a month and a half, I have finally caught up with all the laundry. All the clothes that needed to be washed from storage are finally clean and most are put away. The house has been coming along as well. Matt and my father have been putting up trim around the basement. We really only have the stairs and the storage cabinet to do before we can put down all of the trim. I think they maybe could have used one more coat of stain but we got impatient.

On Friday Matt and I put the mirror and shelving back up in the bar area. A piece of it got broken, but we're going to trim it out so that it's not noticeable. Matt and his dad put up the rest of the grid for the drop ceiling yesterday. Matt's dad tiled our downstairs bathroom with this great Canyon Slate tile that I absolutely loved at Lowe's. The wood floors bring out a tint of red in it while the paint color brings out a little green and a little brown. I really love the way it looks.
For some unknown reason, blogger won't let me turn this picture, but it's the best view of the flooring so I'm posting it aToday my uncle Paul came over and put up our recessed lighting. We were worried about it but I think it ended up coming out really great.
