Stairway to Heaven....

Yes....Stairway to Heaven was the first song I learned to play on the guitar....and this is more like a stairway to the road....but I couldn't think of a better title for this post.  These pictures were taken Christmas Eve morning.  Merry Christmas!

Rod, Steve and Mark have been working hard at the finish wood working.  The arches, crown molding and trim are turning out great.   Asher's paint crew is not far behind!





Here is the master bedroom, converted to a paint shop for the doors!

Hardwoods Stained and Front Porch Poured....

Here are some pictures of recent updates....

Hardwoods Stained....the stain was a 50:50 mix of Nutmeg and Spice Brown.  The final color looks like a warm pecan color.





The house is starting to look more finished outside with the addition of the front porch and completion of the rain gutters.
