MORE TO SEE....

Again it's been 10 days (or so) since my last post, we go visit the house almost everyday (once or twice) but sometimes there is nothing to post about or anything worth taking a picture but I do have some here not a ton but your gonna notice some pretty cool things going on..............

All from the downstairs...........

HURRAY! We have granite countertops (again they are covered with plastic since that still are painting) and see in the back.....a MICROWAVE

Here is a little closer shot of the granite I love the color (it has a mix of light brown like our sofa and some grey speck like the walls will be ). Looks good!

Guest bathroom wood floors , pedestal sink . Nice!

This is our (one of our) GREEN contributions it's a tankless water heater (our house is Energy Star compliant)

Just a little info on that one and why we chose it:

1. Energy savings of up to 60%Save up to 60% on our monthly water heating costs


2. Enjoy endless showers, we can enjoy long hot showers, shower after shower, after shower.


3. The water is heated instantly, on demand (less waste of water waiting for it to heat up)


4. The tankless water heater is capable of supplying all the hot water our home needs


5. It's environmentally friendly by using the tankless water heater you will be saving energy. By consuming less energy you are contributing to the overall savings of non-renewable and renewable energy sources

And the list goes on but I won' t bore you , we just thought it was good investment.

Now from the upstairs:

This is our bathroom separate tub and shower not huge but good size for us.

This is my laundry room (you know where it is?) UPSTAIRS ! HURRAY!!!!!! I am painting it yellow (make it a happy spot, since I HATE doing laundry)

And are youready for this one.........

They are putting up STONE in the front. It looks soooooo good! and we love it!

Come back soon, I will.............

SORRY FOR THE DELAY

Oh my goodness...........it's been about 11 days since my last post (that's a ton of time) but of course that means a lot has changed (I don't have a ton of pictures but that I have are VERY different), see for yourself.............

We have cabinets in the kitchen, they are covered up because they are also painting the ceiling.

I just had to uncover one to show you the color (chocolate brown) I LOVE THEM!

There's a banister on the stairs (it will be stained a darker color).

Yep, it goes all the way up (we might eventually change the white posts for wrought iron, maybe?)


We have a ladder for the attic (dad see this, finally got one) and one more are you ready.......

That's our driveway (stamped concret (how cool is that?)The shape will match the stone that will go in the fron of the house.

Ok that's all I have fornow, come back because I am sure it's gonna start to go fast (since it's a little over a month before we close)OY !!! It's flying by, and we can't wait!

MAJOR CHANGES HERE.....

Ok we have been back at the old house packing, packing and packing (we are supposed to have the house empty by September 4th).

In the meantime they have been working pretty hard we have siding up and all the walls have Sheetrock up(is that how you say that???).

YIPPI! The siding is up!!!!!!!!!!!!and it's not vinyl, it's HARDIPLANK (kinda like concrete as I understand) BETTER?! Looks good!

Just a closer picture of the siding.

See? That's the garage (no exposed beams ma!) Now all I have to do is convince Rob to paint it (hahaha)

That in the back is Rob's office/den and I just had to take that picture because I love how Patrick's silhouette looks.

That's the hall closet (it's pretty big, maybe it should be a room.....................)

That's all for today. See ya later with more pictures.
