A house we will have...and the time will be soon!

Hooray! I've updated the blog with some new photos. Warning: to some; these may be a bit boring, but to us, they are what keeps us going each day.

Sheetrocking will be done on Monday, paint primer happens on Tuesday and I will begin painting (with the help of many great friends) on Wednesday night. Labor day weekend will truly be a L-A-B-O-R filled weekend for us, but the reward at the end will be worth it.


Carter cutting the grass on our new septic mound.
(Don't worry, Grandma, the mower was NOT on!)

The trencher we used to run the permanent electric to our house. That's Bryan on the left moving the rocks that made the process much harder.
It took them over 5 hours to do a job that should have only taken a few.
We have more rocks than a person could imagine!


Our siding! It is called Classic Taupe. Since I took this photo, this entire end of the house is completely sided. The windows in the picture are the windows in our sunroom! I can't wait!


Our first green grass:)

Sheetrocking in progress!

Our front door sidelites.
(Bryan will put the matching door in once any chance of it getting damaged has passed).

The stamped floor in our sunroom.
As mentioned in a prior blog, a picture just can't do it justice. It looks amazing!

Sunroom


Carter and I being silly.
We've had a rough week (with him having some NAUGHTY moments) so I couldn't resist the chance to act goofy with my little man. Obviously, I could care less what I look like, but here's what he thinks is his "funny" face!


Snapping a quick picture before Bryan starts working for the night.
Carter and I try to go out after supper and see him most nights.
Carter LOVES to help Bryan. I get tears in my eyes as I watch him try to help Bryan.
Bryan is so patient. God has truly blessed us!

A view from our kitchen looking towards the dining room.
We will have a deck out from the glass doors you see in the picture.
