Spilling a few beans...

Some things seem to go so slowly and others seem to just fly by! We have the house in town under contract and we are just waiting for their bank to get all the paper work in order and then its theirs! We have been working our fingers and toes off ever since! We have completed just about all of the ground work on the new house. We have all the old walls stripped and moved, new walls and doorways up, and new sub flooring in place. As well, we had spray foam insulation put in the ceiling and the outside walls. The plumbing and electrical are all but finished, other than hanging the lights and adding the faucets after we put up sheet rock. :)

I have so many pictures that I just made a slide show for you.


A few things like the termite damage we found got left out due to time limit on the video but we got that fixed all up too. We have ordered all the sheet rock and once it comes in, were off to installing, taping, and mudding! We will also be working on the new floors. The wood you see in the video we bought unfinished from this super awesome company  and we are installing, sanding, and staining it ourselves. YEP were that crazy! We decide on a mix of two stains for an antiqued looked for most of the house and the bathrooms and laundry room painted white and sealed.

 I have the design finalized for the kitchen and cant wait to start work on it! Evan sure has a bunch of carpentry work ahead of him! Its all going really well so far with very few bumps and we are all so excited that we are so close to moving in!
Back to work now!
With Love,
