Two months to go

The drywall is all up and taped and mudded. They are supposed to texture tomorrow and maybe start painting on Friday!  The drywall company sure works their employees hard.  I went by the house to pick up a sample of the trim and siding at 7:00 PM on a Friday and there was one lonely guy working.  Jesse stopped by the house on Sunday around 2:00 PM.  Same guy...still working...on stilts so he could drywall the ceiling.  Not really sure how I feel about that.  My house isn't THAT important. :(
In other news, we had to show our rental home today.  The landlord is trying to sell it.  I'm secretly hoping it doesn't work out because I'm pretty sure we will need to extend our lease by a couple weeks. 
Last week we picked out all of our flooring with the help of this awesome designer, Gail, at Designers 2. 
The wood is going in the kitchen/dining area as well as our basement bedroom/workout room.  The lighter tile is going in two of the bathrooms.  The darker tile is going in the master bath.  The carpet we chose is the second from the left.  The two little blocks are our cabinet colors.  White for kitchen.  Dark for island, bathroom, railing, mantle and desk.
 
We also have to pick outside stone by the end of the week.  This is what we are thinking:
 
 
We also decided on a paint color and "upgraded" our look to have white ceilings.  Of course with the upgraded looked comes an upgraded price tag. ;)
 
Here is the paint color we choose.  Benjamin Moore Pashmina:


This week we need to focus on what we are doing with the patio in the backyard and picking out stone for the fireplace.
