Its in AWESOME shape and just so COOL!

Cabinets and more!

Kitchen cabinets delivered! They are PERFECT!!!
A white cabinet with an inset door style
Bathroom vanity, PERFECTION!
Lots and lots of beadboard delivered, for every inch of ceiling. Soon will be painted white.
Soon this cabinet will house a farm house sink

Kitchen Floor

In the kitchen, bathroom and basement, we are using Vinyl Composition Tile (VCT) and the rest of the house will be hard wood flooring. I give all my thanks to my awesome friend Mindy for the ideas of VCT, after she did it in her house many many years ago we put it in our current home. In the Gym & Bath, and now all over 1214 Hillcrest!
I LOVE IT!
Thank you Mindy!~

Shown here in the kitchen is green & white installed on a 45 degree.

Land with Trees!


We LOVE the back yard!

The back yard is the number ONE reason we bought this house.
It was the fall of 2008 we looked at it. The boys were running through all the leaves, laughing and having so much fun! We knew right then this home was for US!

Basement Framing

New little hideout under the stairs, much smaller then the one we have now but HEY, everything is much smaller at 1214 Hillcrest!
