It's official...

we are no longer nomads...we have a home!!!

Everyone must have been saying those prayers cuz it happened...we made it in for Thanksgiving!!! YEAH!!! Our families both came down and it was a wonderful holiday.


We don't have any pictures on the walls yet and we haven't shopped for furniture but all that will come. I'm thinking not til after the New Year, though...to much to do with the holiday here. We are still trying to get settled in and remember where we put everything...lol Not to mention trying to figure out what light goes with what switch...that's was fun every night...I finally labeled them!!! We are getting old...lol
I'm thinking this is my last post for a while - at least til I decorate some. It has been a crazy ride this last 15 months and I'm glad I got to share this build with all of you. Thank ya'll so much for the encouragement and support, it kept me going. I love you all and want you to come when you can. Our door is always open.
Have a great holiday and we'll see you all soon.
Jada :o)

"Rocked" out...

and thrilled!!! FINALLY, all the rock is complete. We even got a mailbox done, which, of course, I didn't get a pic of but will next time. Sheetrock, tape, float and texture is complete and we have about a week before the painter comes. Kinda good since I'm not 100% on the colors yet!!! The doors will be delivered Monday and the trim guys start on Tuesday hanging them. It should take them a couple days to get the doors done and then start the base boards, sills and closets. The cabinets are suppose to be complete and delivered next Monday and the trim guys will hang them. Everything is going pretty smooth. That's about right for the painter to start painting and staining everything then. We are getting excited since it seems to all be coming together.

Still hoping for a Happy Thanksgiving in the house...say a prayer...hell is a horrible place...trust me...it's much worse than even the Bible portrays...really...!!!

Still "rockin'" along...

but almost to the end. They should be starting our fireplace and columns today. They are finishing up above the garage doors this morning. Sheetrock is in and everything has been taped and they are finishing up on the floating. All the rounded corners are in. I think they will finish up with the floating by tomorrow and should be texturing on Friday or Saturday. Everything is coming together. We are very excited!!! There's still a lot to do but we are still hopeful for end of October to the first part of November. We would love to be in the house before Thanksgiving...everybody say a prayer!!!

Anyway, here are some more pix...
