The slate installation was completed just before the new year.

A look into the lower foyer from the bottom of the staircase:

A look at the media room - our carpet choices are shown here. We are leaning towards the one in the lower left.

Marco, our painter, has been here for most of the past two weeks. They have all of the trim prepared for painting. Downstairs both the Media room and Guest room are painted. Up next is the guest bathroom and after the hardwood is done the remaining upstairs rooms.
The Guest room is a Pumpkin color (its also currently serving as a storage location for some of our furniture since the upstairs had to be vacated for the hardwood floor refinishing:

The Media room is a more Golden Color. Shown is the design Alan and I came up with on New Year's Eve to make the accent wall:

Another view of the Media room:

They started installing the hardwood floors on Wednesday and have almost all of it installed. For some of next week we will be completely blocked from the front of the house and will need to use our bedroom window to get in/out of the house - should be fun...
A view down the hall from our bedroom to Alan's office. The door on the left is the Laundry Room/Bathroom door. Past that on the left is the staircase and on the far right is the kitchen. On the immediate left is a little nook in the wall aimed at breaking up the hall after it is painted.

A view of the kitchen with hardwood flooring. Once the floor has its initial finish coats on the remaining cabinets will be installed, the counters will be installed and the cabinets will get painted.

The vanity in the Guest Bath was installed earlier this week. Its missing its counter top so it looks a bit naked yet.
