Last weekend we planned to knock out some of the bigger projects..... Most of the photos are from that, although some are from random evening work sessions :)

My uncle keeps needling me that it looks like DH is doing all the work. So I made my mom take a photo of me helping ;) |

Brief break from house posts to bring you one of my husband's random impulse acquisitions...... |

Master vanity finally arrived |

We still need to glue the sinks on the vases but we set it in the bathroom to get a feel for it |
![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi9PkgcmzRSQVZryEXxo6O36IcBStSb5edSYTYt4mxlLNC_u-MYpHanswgGcTbHagwb6ZnZePf9ogkp-8BOpp_icLeBdn9joswiCqXZAaE2hszoRFEWQ8wazpHM6Kt-QbY-XQ04AH2XTXke/s320/MVIMG_20190911_190425.jpg) |
The rest of the flooring had to be moved and the thought of bringing it out how I brought it in (around the awkward turn from the front door down the hallway) sounded AWFUL so we opened the window and I handed it out for DH to stack in the truck bed. SO MUCH EASIER |

DH has been talking about these barstools since we first started putting together the bids back in January, so I bought them |

Gravel for the final sewer work (which will hopefully happen this week or next 🤞) |

Gravel to fix our driveway, which desperately needs some TLC after all the big trucks driving up and down it all summer (neighbors new construction in the background) |

Big project for last weekend - backsplash! |

While my mom and I did that, DH worked on the guest bedroom floor |

My mom was super involved in her job as tile master haha |

Longest stretch of floor! DH was very proud of himself that he made it through all the doorways with no transitions - the only transition we'll have is going into the utility room, since we're leaving that floor concrete |

I really hate staining doors, have I mentioned that? |

We got it hung and then were too exhausted to trim it haha |
It was a super productive weekend and we're almost to the home stretch! I need to grout the backsplash, stain and hang three more glass panel doors and one 6-panel, DH needs to floor half the master bedroom, the kitchen and the dining room, and then we need to finish the trim. Oh and hook up the plumbing 🙈 but we're probably about a solid weekend an a few evenings of work away from being move-in ready! Now we just have to find time and motivation to, you know ...do all that work, lol.
