New House

Thanks to my sweet sister you are getting pictures of my house. Her computer is much.. much... MUCH faster than mine. She came and spent last Friday and Saturday with me to help me move some of the things out of the old storage room into the new one. NO we are not moved in yet, but the storage room had nothing left to work on, so we were able to start moving some things.

This first picture is the front of the house. I'm glad it's at a distance, because that is me in my clean-up clothes holding a broom. We are getting the last little bit of siding put on today, and then we have the deck to finish,and the railing around the deck and the porch to do, and garage doors. I think after that, the outside will be finished. This next picture is of our living room upstairs. Out the doors is where the deck is, to the right is the kitchen, and in the corner is our fireplace with it's beautiful mantle that you really can't see very well, so just trust me I guess. This room now has carpet as well. It was sooooo nice to finally have all the carpet put in. Natalie helped me sweep the whole house to get ready for the carpet layers. THANK YOU A TON!

This picture is of my kitchen. I really love the cabinets. Our little woodworker guy did a GREAT job. I know it's hard for you all to see, but there is a black dishwasher behind the bar. I am SO EXCITED to finally own one of these things. Natalie also promised me lessons on how to actually use one. We cleaned the kitchen up so it isn't this messy, but Natalie said the picure she took of it after being cleaned was mostly of me. I'm glad she chose this one to post.

Last but not least is a little bit of the master bathroom. To the right is toilet, shower, tub. To the left is our closet. We are just super happy with the way everything is turning out. Our plan is to be moving over there next week, with some things going in this weekend as well hopefully. I feel like I need the stress of moving to be gone so I can deal better with the stress of decorating, Christmas, putting everything in a new place, and Jody starting the process of going back to get his masters. (That is for sure more of a stress to him, but we both know it will be a blessing in the end).

I guess it is so long for now. I'm not sure I will be blogging again until we're hooked up in the new house. But who knows, I may just surprise you.
