here are some pictures of the house. the first one was posted when it was for sale in 2005. the one of my dad and i was taken in summer 2006. the last one was taken yesterday. look how much the tree has grown in 7 years!!
the big move last saturday, went better than expected! my parents, charlie & nichole, kurt's parents, kyle, kurt, jack and i, well not jack, moved us out out of house and into a 16x8 pod and a 10x15 storage unit. the storage unit was a last minute rental. we were getting close to the end of the pod and realized that none of our outdoor stuff was going to fit in there. it turned out okay b/c i really didn't want my living room couch next to the lawn mower.
we cleaned the house on sunday, finished moving a couple of odds and ends on monday, cut the grass on tuesday and said goodbye to our sweet home on thursday. today, we had the closing and turned the keys over to the new owners. i have the check in hand....well, not any longer, now it is in the bank account. makes me nervous having that money in my purse!
we've officially moved in with tom & joan and it is great! kurt and i are in his old room and jack his sleeping in his crib (we moved it) in kyle's old room. we've got plenty of space and feel very blessed to have a place to live.
we met with the builder last night and went over a few things. he feels that he can get the house done in 6 wks. bring it on! we are so excited!! last night when we arrived to the house, we found that the hardwood floors were being installed. even though they aren't stained, they are beautiful!!
they've started on the soffits and trim. we went with a linen color. once the shake is up (tuesday) and the cement board is painted, the linen will really pop! it is coming along!!
