Well, we are finally in after all of the drama of the past few weeks. We settled on both houses on Friday, spent a few hours being homeless in between and had everything @ the new house by dinner time. A great big THANK YOU to all of the awesome friends and family who helped for several hours to get the job done! As you can see from the pictures, we are just getting settled in, but still have a lot of work to do. We are enjoying the nice cool weather and my Dad is the master of hanging everything and did about 2 months of work in 2 days hanging all of our paper holders, towel bars, window treatments, quilt rack, pictures, etc. He built some steps out back today from the sliding door off the kitchen. My Mom is here for the week to help unpack and organize. Thanks for all of your prayers and support and please stop by to take a peek. We will hopefully settle in and have an Open House in September.

Grass is Growing!
Good Morning. Well, we sure have come a long way since May! We have been watering the yard every morning and the grass is already sprouting up, it is great to have the 1 week head start before we move in. The builder is actually going to raise the grade in the backyard a bit since we have 1 spot that is collecting water. We had our "zero defect" walk through this morning, but we have a few things that still aren't just right, so they will be fixed today or tomorrow. We are being picky, but this is the time to do it, b/c we don't want people to have to come back to fix things once we move in. Only 4 days until we move in! We are really getting excited now and would appreciate your continued prayers for all the details and settlements to go smoothly. We have to put in our mailbox this week, but otherwise things are ready to roll.
