footer update

we ran by the lot on yesterday to check out the footers. they had removed the boards around the concrete which meant they probably have cured. i wouldn't think they wouldn't have cured that quickly since it was so cold, but i guess the sun did warm it up a bit. they have evened out some of the dirt that is where the garage and driveway will be. this weekend we are heading to cynthiana, i look forward to seeing what progress they will make while we are gone. 

since we are off on monday for mlk day, kurt and i will be meeting with our stone guy and hopefully our cabinet guy as well. we plan on going to the carpet and tile stores, as well as checking out lowes for fixtures, faucets, etc. 

for those who remember the movie old school with will ferrell, i thought this quote was appropriate to add here:

Frank: I told my wife I wouldn't drink tonight. Besides, I got a big day tomorrow. You guys have a great time.
College Student: A big day? Doing what?
Frank: Well, um, actually a pretty nice little Saturday, we're going to go to Home Depot. Yeah, buy some wallpaper, maybe get some flooring, stuff like that. Maybe Bed, Bath, & Beyond, I don't know, I don't know if we'll have enough time.


will update after our big day of shopping!! p.s. kurt and i both said after our trip on tuesday to pick out the doors, windows, etc that it was just like registering for a wedding....except, we are paying for this stuff! ha!

here are some pictures of yesterday's trip to the lot:
