Moving right along~

LOVE MY NEW DOOR

I think it looks good with the BLUE roof :) & the beautiful blue sky~

1/2 of the fence is up now, just a little part on the other side needs to be done and then we get to have our doggie out here. I am packing away anything that can be packed. I HATE PACKING!!!!! I pray that this is the last time I move EVER~

Some of the walls are going up inside today and once the walls are up it is downhill from there carpet, paint, kitchen cabinets and MOVE IN!!

NEW ROOF~ spring break

We are so ready YA'LL

A good friend of mine is moving to NC :( and offered to give us their playhouse. This will be the boys club house or dog house or..... she called just in time, we can get it in the back yard before the fence is finished~

Look at these lovely front steps just a few more boards~

Look at that roof HAWAIIAN BLUE

Notice the sleeping bags~Max, Gregg and several friends and their boys went camping out at the house this weekend. They ate meat and shot guns ~ they had a blast~ I stayed home with the other boys it was nice and quiet.

every day changes

New chimney

I don't know if you can tell from these pictures but they took the sliding glass door out and evened out the floor~ it is ready for flooring once we get the walls up :) This is the kitchen area

Wooowee look at this wonderful fence!!

It is almost ready ~ When this is done we get our dog and and can feel safe letting the boys run wild in the back yard.

Look at the porch NOW~everyday it looks so different. The front steps are going to be large in the front~

The roof is in and concrete will be poured today. I am going back out this afternoon with my friends to take more pictures.

where's the hammer guys?

Our new front door~ the color doesn't look right in this picture is more of a red~ it will be pretty

Couldn't resist taking a pic of my teenager working on the house :)

We pulled up today and Logan was concerned that the "Hammer guys" were not there. The front porch is going to be a wonderful place.

New windows in the boys rooms

This is the size that the back window will be there will be five big windows across the back wall.

I am thinking more and more of making this back room my dining room space

It looks kind of boarded up now but in a few more days it will look wonderful with all those windows :)

I love that the back door will be across from my laundry room door~ easy access and tile floor so the kids can dump muddy clothes.

its a beautiful day

Logan loves watching all this construction.Today we pulled up and he was so excited to see this machine ("tractor thingy" is what I called it).

the guys are working on the back room and finishing prep for the roof~I ordered the roof today we ordered a Hawaiian blue which is a grey-blue color.

We are putting can lighting in the "dining room" area , we may be making the back room the dining room~ we still aren't sure. I think it would be pretty neat to eat dinner looking out at nature every night!

The can lights are already up on the front porch. We got our new door today it is a cherry wood color with glass oval shape~ they are going to have to cut the house to fit it in :)

Look at that front porch!!! We are building big steps off the front and smaller steps on the side of the front porch.

New windows are in and they will be so easy to clean because they just pull out :)

I am so blessed and grateful to be going through this process~we are in a very different place than we were just last summer. I am looking forward to this summer~ apparently there is a wonderful lake that only locals know about called Mountain lake, we hear it is secluded and beautiful. I can't wait for this summer~ spend time with my kids in the yard~ watch my niece Lyla for 2 weeks~ I just feel like this is all a dream~
Please don't wake me :)

roof roof

Logan loves helping at the house!

The roof is going on this week! I can see it now it is going to look great!

We welcome to our tribe Zepplin Flynn~ he is the most excellent dog~ He is about a year old and we got him from a friend. ~

He is so cute and he has this great smile~ He is wonderful with little boys ~We are in love with our little road dog~

max & logan's room

kitchen/laundry all the way through to the master bath

front room and zach's room

here are some pictures from today~ LOOK at that front porch :) My builder keeps telling me "Don't be scared"~

This weekend I am picking out bath tubs so we can have them at the house when the plumber and electrician come out Monday. The roof will be done this weekend. I can see it all in my mind and I love it! We are making the boys bathroom bigger and making it a jack and (jill) jack bathroom (the boys hate when i say jack and jill bathroom) to where they can enter the bathroom from their room~ it is going to look so great!

GUTTED!!!

Here is the front deck!! I am so excited to get my rocking chair on that front porch!!

Laundry room

These guys have done alot of work in only a few days~ it doesn't even seem real. Our Builder and friend says they can be done around the end of March!!! Wooooweeeee~

WE have been also looking for dog or dogs to adopt. We have found a set of Corgi (mix) sisters that are a year old (house trained) we will see what the future holds. But it is very important to all of us in the family that we adopt. I was thinking puppy at first then I was thinking NEW CARPET!!! So maybe an older puppy would work for us. Just thinking ~
