Getting closer...

After calling and emailing just about every flooring store and distributor from here to what feels like the ends of the Earth I have found the hardwood floors need in Guelph. We have to pick it up on Tuesday. So that is a relief. 
Other than that the floors are in, grouting done, tile work in bathrooms are done.

We went to a place in Concord, up by Vaughan Mills area to buy lighting. Well worth the drive! It's called Galaxy Lighting, open to public Mon to Fri from 9-3. Prices were amazing. We got a pendant lantern for outside our front door, a matching light for back patio, fixtures for foyer, dining room, our bedroom and 2 vanity lights for 360$ no tax, cash only. I would recommend it if you are replacing some lighting. We've already hung the lighting and it looks great.

We also got everything done for the granite counter top. Went and picked out our slabs and mapped out how we want them cut. 

Went to pick out brick and stone for the house. Went with a brown brick called Ashford and a stone called French Country. 

We closed on our house yesterday. It was a bit emotional for me. I'm glad the house is going to be going to a nice family. 

Tomorrow I will go over to give the floors a good cleaning to avoid any damage to the hardwood. The trim and wood for the stairs should be in soon and we will be busy with priming, painting and staining.
