The siding is finished

As you can see, the front steps finally arrived and the last of the siding was installed. I am happy with the results though it seems odd to have yellow on the front of the house after looking at the insulation for so long. In the next picutre, you can see where the old sidewalk has been dug up.
As a last minute addition, we are re-laying the front walk from the sidewalk and removing the continuation around to the back door. We are planning on landscaping the front yard next summer and this will make the house and walks more balanced. On the interior, all the windows have been stained and varnished, and the inside of the porch has received a fresh coat of paint. We will be turning that into more of a sunroom than a storage room. We are not quite finished with the painting yet but should be soon. I will get some shots when we are done. Till then.....

Oh Sara, it looks wonderful - so crisp and clean. With a new walkway and cleaned up landscaping, you will have the best looking house around. Great job!

Sara,
The house looks great! You are experiencing the same thing we did when we did our kitchen..."just one more thing". I thought it would never be done! Can't wait to see it in person.
