Cabinets delayed...

Well, we went to choose our carpet tonight. We are putting carpet in the master bedroom, kids' bedrooms, attic hallway, guest bedroom, and music room. We took samples of the carpets we liked out to the house to see how they looked next to the tile that will be in the adjoining hallways. We were unable to go in the house, as the tile had been laid in the mudroom and was blocked off so no one would walk on it.

We borrowed a small piece of the kitchen/entry/hallway/powder room tile so we could compare it to the carpet samples and we can use it when we're out shopping for other materials.

The kitchen cabinets and master bathroom which were supposed to be installed yesterday are now slated to go in on June 2nd. The floors need to be in and grouted and dry before the cabinets can be installed.

We found a light for over our table the other day and have chosen our towel bars, etc. for the bathrooms, so I think we are done choosing everything for the interior of the house (whew! what a relief!). I'm sure there are still a bunch of decisions as far as choosing plants and trees for the landscaping, but for the most part I'm happy to let DH decide what to plant. The only thing I really want is lilacs - as long as some lilac bushes get planted, I'll be happy.
