4 days!

It's almost here!  I seriously can't believe it!  So much going on in the house today!  Plumber set almost everything. Sinks, toilets and faucets are done, he's only missing the shower head in our shower!  All plumbing works, so we all took bathroom breaks! Whohoo!  The rock is all done on the outside and grouted too. Lights are almost done, just missing a couple lights and a couple switches!  And the lights work too!!  We are closing Friday at 9am, so it'll be close.  Sounds like we will have a few contractors in the house next week,  but at this point I don't care!  We figured out, we've been in the camper for 19 weeks this weekend, so we can put up with a couple contractors for a week as long as its in my house!  Love you all!  Xoxo

Flooding

Both the kids and us had a day off!!  Out work got canceled and school did as well. We stopped at the house today and nothing was progressing because all the subs were stuck as well. This is a picture out the window on the second floor the pond wasn't there last week and the raging river on the other side wasn't there either. What a storm!  We checked the roof and the basement and no water leaking! Figured if the house made it through these 10ish inches the past few days then we should be okay for winter!  One more week!!!!!  Xoxo

We have lights, but no electricity yet!!

The light fixtures are mostly in. A few left to do, but should be done tomorrow. The tile guy is almost done too. Tomorrow he should finish grouting and be done. Loving it!!!  Xoxo

Wow. I can't believe how fast things are moving!  Counter tops are in and they look so great!  Outside Rock is about 3/4 done, but not sure he can finish today because of the rain. Love you all. Xoxo

Once again

It has begun again. PACKING!!!  


And of course, we stopped at the house again and the carpet layers were working!!  This is the living room! If there was running water, we might have stayed!  Xoxo


12 days!!!!

It's actually starting to look like a home!  All the trim is up, interior doors hung, kitchen cabinets up, linoleum down and the tile on the bathroom are about 1/2 done. Carpet and paint on the doors and trim is next, then countertops and back splashes, and finals for plumber and electrician!  It's hard to actually leave the house when we go look.  Love you all!!

18 Days!!!!

Phew what a busy, but completly awesome Sunday!!  We went to Trail Ridge Road today. It is above tree level and man, there's not much O2 up there!! The kids kept saying how this was an awesome trip, the coolest picnic spot and just loved everything.  It made me so happy!!  We took two short hikes, and no complaints at all!  Then we came home (got some ice cream on the way home) and stopped at the house and the painter is almost done (he's super super slow). I think he only works a few hours a day, urgh! Then we came home and rode horses. It was a good day!!  The best part, 18 MORE DAYS! whohoo!!!  Love you all!!



This was our picnic spot. It was so peaceful and amazing!  We watched a Pika play below us and saw quiet a few yellow bellied marmots. 


We were in the clouds!!  It was so awesome!  Sydney actually "ate" one!  It was super cute!
The paint job!  Looking from the kitchen into the living room. 
Into the kitchen. Devin photo bombed me! 
This is Sprint. She's an old one-eyed mare who is so sweet with the kids. Really reminds me of Brandy our old horse!
Sydney in heaven on Dosey.
