Some Before and After Pictures

So, somebody had a busy fall and hasn't gotten around to posting in months. I figured it was time for a few 'before' and 'after' shots of the addition, which is officially done and has been for several months. We'll start outside and work our way in.

Here's the 'before' shot of the back of the house, looking north.

And here's the 'after' shot looking north as well.

And here's the 'before' looking East.

And the 'after'.

Moving inside, this is the kitchen before we did the addition (but after the 2013 renovation).

And here is the view now. The addition is in and we actually decided to repaint the kitchen a darker color. Jewel tones are in!

If we go way back to 2012, here's how the kitchen looked when we moved in.

And here's the same angle now.

And lastly, a few panorama shots. Here we had just started demo on the original kitchen in 2013.

And here's the panorama view today, which is not the same angle, but shows the whole space.

Lastly, here's the breakfast nook. There's no 'before' shot since it was just yard before this.

Pavers and Landscape Plan

Progress continues on the backyard. We have pavers in now that surround the concrete. Eventually they will have moss planted between them to form a transition from the slab to the grass and landscaped beds.

And speaking of landscape, we have a plan that includes adding a lot of shade-loving perennials that will have the backyard blooming from early spring through late summer. Here's the highlights of plants below:

After burying some downspouts and adding a rockwall to the patio, plants should go in around the first of September!

Who knew concrete could be so exciting!

Our concrete slab is finally in our back yard AND the fence is back up so Ellie has free reign again!

Here's the progress:

We tried getting Clara's hand print in the wet concrete...that was a disaster.

The next step is to install pavers (see the stacks in the background of the last photo?) around the patio and re-plant Irish moss like we had before.
