It’s Friday! It’s Friday! Everyone together now… It’s Friday!! Pop the champagne let’s celebrate! Okay, okay maybe not yet although I am sure it’s 5:00 somewhere! How did your week go? I hope it was a good one and that despite the crappy weather we are having I hope you made the best out of it and if you are lucky to live somewhere other than here maybe you where lucky enough to have some sunshine and warm temperatures! I feel a great sense of accomplishment just for making it through this week. That sounds so funny to say but it felt like every day this week was a battle of some sorts and I am just thankful to be on the other side and looking forward to the weekend of finishing stuff up before we head on vacation and then our big move! Speaking of our move some of you have been asking, begging, pleading (ok I am just kidding about the pleading part) for updates and pictures of our new home and I am so sorry for keeping you in anticipation. This house is a dream of mine and my husbands and has been so exciting to work on together and yet at the same time anything you pour your heart (and your money) into can be stressful and nerve-wracking to open up yourself to others criticism. I have felt like all I do is talk about our new home and I don’t want it to come across like I am bragging we are just simply really excited and want to share our excitement with you. So for those of you who have been asking here are some photos from the beginning to present. Now if your wanting to see inside pictures you will simply have to wait. I am sorry but I for one haven’t seen everything done on the inside yet as we are still waiting for the flooring to go in and counter tops but I want to show you the big revel once its all done and everything is put together. That my friends is the key part to me! I want you to see everything put together as I have been envisioning it. I am a bit OCD (I can hear my husband right now going “A bit?”) and I want everything put together before I reveal it to ya’ll but I promise I will. We are less than 3 weeks away till we move in and I can hardly wait to get in and start unpacking and setting everything up. My husband keeps reminding me it won’t be done overnight but I am thinking sleep can wait 😉 My babies are also so excited. I don’t think my little guy gets it although he loves to go visit the new house but my daughter asks daily to go to the new house and if I drive her bye she insist on going in. She keeps talking about her new big girl bedroom and it thrills my mama heart to know she is excited about this move and it isn’t causing her anxiety or anything like that. I know they are both looking forward to not dealing with boxes anymore and having all their toys and things to play with that are currently each day are getting less and less.
Back in the fall when we first picked out our lot! Seems like forever ago!
Shortly after Christmas they broke the ground and started building and we were so excited!
This is after the foundation was poured these are the “molds” to hold the concrete in place while it sets.
We have lumber and the framing begins!
My babies loved seeing all the cool machinery working on our house.
Things started happening!
Going for a very cold walk through once the framing of the main floor was done.
My little assistant helping me as I make some tile selections!
Framing complete and windows are in!
Stone and brick arrived and ready to go up!
Looking so good!

This sweet girl can not wait to move in!
So there you have it – a little peak into the progress of our new build! We have loved every minute of this process so far and are super excited to see it once it is all done! Enjoy your weekend! xo
