Inside the house, the guest bathroom tile preparation is continuing as they lay down the mud in the shower

Up close, the shower head plumbing comes out of the wall.  There is a pony wall on which the light is sitting.  In the final configuration of the bathroom, there will be a glass wall that continues up from the top of the pony wall to the ceiling.

Of course, in this shower, we also have a cubby hole shelf to hold all your shower necessities!

The kitchen cabinetry is at a bit of a stall until we receive some replacement pieces for the island.  But we start to get an idea of how the kitchen will fit together.

Upstairs, the upper cabinets have been hung in the laundry and the fronts have been put on the lower cabinets, but whoops, there has been a bit of a mistake.  When we chose our cabinetry, we decided to get solid wood fronts for all the cabinets.  We were advised not to do so because the solid wood fronts tend to be manufactured with more than one piece of wood so the fronts end up with lines where the different pieces have been joined together.  Well, we don't care about that; we just wanted solid wood fronts.  Unfortunately, somewhere along the order process, the solid wood fronts became veneer fronts.  I thought there was something weird looking about the front of the cabinets but I couldn't put my finger on it.  Well, Peter put a finger on it when he found a strip of veneer that was already peeling off the edge of one of the cabinets.  So now we have to reorder all new fronts for the cabinets. 

The cabinets will continue to be installed and when the new fronts come, they can just be swapped out for the existing fronts.  Therefore, this will not slow down any of the remaining work to be done....like the heated floor.

The heated floor components have arrived and are sitting in the garage awaiting installation.  Yes, the heated flooring consists of pressboard with a steel sheeting over one side with grooves routed out of it.  The heated floor system is based on hot water running through pipes in the floor and the grooves in these pressboard sheets will house the pipe.  Some of the grooves are straight lines....

and some are loops.  In this sheet, the metal face has not yet been punched out along the grooves, but the path is visible anyway. 

On each level of the house, the sheets will be connected together like pieces of a puzzle to create one continuous path for the water.
