Heat please...

Back to the farmhouse updates.  Once again, there's not much BIG news to report out there.  Karsten has been very busy continuing to work on running the heat lines.  I didn't realize this took so long but after spending a little time out there, I understand a little more.  Almost all of the exterior walls have insulation in them and he has started to put the plastic barrier up as well.
 This is looking into the downstairs bathroom.  It used to be Grandpa's bedroom.  See the heat pipes?  We plan to make a built-in closet area on that wall to cover the pipes.

This is the other side of that wall.  This is part of the addition, there actually used to be a tree in that corner as well as a chimney.   This room is an entryway and we plan to have a laundry area in this corner.  

 Can anybody guess what these boxes have in them??  You guessed it!  Kitchen cabinets!!  They were delivered on Valentine's Day.  I know, I know we are soooo not ready for them.  But, I didn't want to have to wait for them when we are ready.  It's also kind of nice to spread out the expenses a little.  Whew!  I peeked in one of them and am very pleased with what we picked out.   Can't.wait.for.my.kitchen.

And now just a couple pictures of what the boys do when we are all out there....
 Riding bikes thru the house, they love this!  Hope it's not a major issue when they have to stop!
Then they decided these bags of insulation looked like good horseys...

As you can see we are still working really hard out there!
