The trim carpentry started about 2 weeks ago and finished up today! So far everything looks great! I think our kitchen cabinets turned out really nice, as well as our pantry. Going from the apartment kitchen to this, we will have plenty of room. We should be able to store all of our food in the pantry and everything else in the regular cabinets.
Fonzo, our trim carpenter, was able to install the double columns like our plans called for on the front porch.

We have a couple of columns on the back porch as well.

Fonzo did a beautiful job on the mantel over our fireplace.

This is a photo of Britney's embarrassingly large walk-in closet. It's about 3 times the size of Brad's. (sorry, Brad) This photo doesn't do it justice. It really is quite huge. It used to be a staircase in part, but we decided not to have a room over the garage and made it into a closet instead. Hopefully, all of my clothes and stuff will fit in this one. I hope I don't outgrow it anytime soon.

The top row of doors has been changed out since this picture. They installed square doors by mistake, but we had chosen arched doors for the top, so they switched them out.

On Monday, the painters arrived and started painting the walls and trim. Looks good so far. I think we are going to be happy with our wall color. The house is still kept locked, and we aren't allowed to have a key, so we don't get to go inside every day. If we are lucky, we may find a door unlocked or the garage open, so we can sneak in and look around! Consequently, we haven't been able to take as many pictures as we would like along the way. Look for pictures of the paint coming soon!
Also, our builder finally gave us a potential closing date. They said we would definitely be in our new home no later than July 27! Whoohoo!
