House Update






I wish I could be more exciting but really I'm not!! Not much has been going on, keeping busy with my two rug-rats and my calling which takes up the days I'm not doing anything! Ryan was out of town for the first part of the week and since he's been home not a whole lot of progress has gone on with clearing out clutter from our townhouse. Hopefully we can make major progress this weekend. The house is coming along a little slower now, still fast but a little bit slower. They finished painting a few days ago and did the fireplace stone work. It looks nice. The exterior of the house is really looking good, I was slightly nervous I saw the first part of it put up but now that it's finished I think it's going to look great. We had a slight mishap with the trim stone last week. The day before the stone was to go up we noticed that the boxes said the wrong color. We emailed our sales agent and apparently he did not get the message to the poor guy actually doing the stone. Oh you guess it, the very next day by 12:30pm the guy was done with the garage trim stone, mind you it's the wrong color!!! :( Thank goodness Ryan speaks Spanish, and explained that it was the wrong color. I felt horrible that he had waisted a half days work, stupid sales agent! By that evening the right stone was delivered and now all the stone work is done. It looks like they will be doing the final stucco color this week. The pictures I'll post with this blog are still in the middle of doing the exterior. Anyway, other than house stuff and my calling and my 3!!! children to keep up with we're doing good. Rebecca I love all the new pictures and always look forward to checking your blog for new pictures and stories. I hope you're doing okay, I need to call and have a chat with you!! Jackie I hope better days are starting to take over the chaos ones!! Love to everyone!!!

I was so excited to see you had updated your blog! Yay!! The house is looking good...we can't wait to come visit and see for ourselves.

We are thinking of coming out (I am sure Ryan told you)for Randy to walk again at graduation. So, maybe we can get a VIP tour before the house is even finished. We will let you know if any of that happens.

Talk to you soon. Keep updating us!
