Final Pictures

It's supposed to be our moving day, but unfortunately there was a paperwork hold up with the buyers of our current house. This pushed everything back, so now we're looking at moving (hopefully) Thursday. Our new home is done and ready however, so enjoy the finished pictures :)

Almost done!!

It was a flurry of activity around the house today. The outside is almost completely done. We need to add our shutters (black) and gutters still need to go on, but it's looking good.
There are also changes on the inside. Lighting is all in, as well as appliances and faucets. We're very happy with the results.
One of the things we did was incorporate a light from each of our previous homes. It will be fun to think of the journey to our "dream home", when we remember the homes that we celebrated the first few years of our lives together in. The entry light is the same as our Colonial Hills home, and the master closet light is the same as the one in our current house's hallway.
Tomorrow Tyler will start laying the wood floors. It will be a busy few days, but we're excited to see the end result!

Crazy busy, but sure looks good!!

We just wanted to update with some pictures of the weekend's progress. The tile flooring and fireplace tile is now installed, and the counters/sinks are as well. The grouting is being finished up today, but it's looking good. At times we wonder what we were thinking, taking all this on with two small kiddos :). Looking forward to enjoying a glass (or two :) of wine on the covered porch when we're all moved in. More updates coming soon...

Update on the Changes

As life goes, we have fallen a bit behind on our blog updates. While we have been busy, the house has been moving forward. Here are the updates... The concrete is down. We have a driveway, front sidewalk (again), walkway and back patio. It's nice to not have to walk over the dirt (lately mud) to get to the house anymore. We also have inside changes. I'll skip right to the good pictures. We now have trim, fireplace mantel, cabinets and paint. The painters made a little mistake and painted the green color in the wrong bathroom, but that will be corrected before we move in. Here are the pictures... Things are about to get crazy in our family, as work to lay the flooring (tile and hardwood) hang the fans and set the counter tops. It will all be worth it in a few short weeks though. We'll be moving in before we know it. Will keep you updated...
