Back to the house. We are planning to move in January 16th ish...please Lord! It has been a different 6 months living out of town, and everywhere I typically need to go(kids' school, practice, dance, nutcracker rehearsal, grocery, bank) is so inconvenient compared to where we are currently living. It takes me 20 minutes to pack up the car when we head in, and at least that amount of time when we get back. Just those little things I am totally OVER! I am way too type A for this type of living ;)The kids did have an amazing summer out at the lake, a major bonus for them.
Shane has worked his tail off on our new home. I am so thankful for him, he is one of the hardest working husbands/fathers I know. He has provided so much for us! Yesterday was exactly 1 year ago when we stumbled upon the lot. I will always say, because it is absolutely the truth, that God orchestrated this entire chapter. It's definitely one of those times in life when you just know, you feel his hand in the entire process, so the glory goes to him. He has given us a major gift, and blessed us abundantly with this gift. This is going to be a special home, one which we plan to live in for many many...many years. Everything about the house and lot is very functional, there is no wasted space, it's beautiful, and has some fun and unique additions that we together thought were a good idea this time around.
Here are some pictures of the progress. These pictures are quite old, from the beginning, phase 1, 2, & 3. Fast forwarding to now, all flooring, except carpet is in, cabinets in, mill work being installed and detailed...yeah!!! I will take some pictures of the interior next so stay tuned. So much more to post!
