Getting Closer!

Today my parents, Blake, and I went out to our new house to check the progress. The outside has been painted (and we love the color that was selected for us), the cabinets up in the kitchen and bathrooms, the flooring is down-minus the carpet, and some of the kitchen appliances are in. It was so exciting to see that the selections we made look great!! I'm not really good about visualizing things so I was a little nervous about our flooring selections, and our back splash selection in the kitchen. Blake was confident in our selection, so I took a leap of faith and trusted that he knew best, and I'm glad I did. Our house is starting to look like OUR house with all our added personal touches and I love it. We're anxious to see what it looks like once the landscaping is done and the driveway poured which should be in a few weeks, and then.......In about 30 days we should be moving in if the schedule keeps on time. I was asking Blake what the one thing he was most excited about living in our new house was and he said that he's looking forward to finishing the fence and landscaping in the backyard (the backyard is fenced on 2 of the 3 sides because it's a corner lot and the backyard we have to landscape ourselves). I told Blake that I can't wait to plant a garden next summer. We have the perfect spot in our little backyard that I've already designated for it.




The house is a light blue with a dark brown accent color. The front door color is my favorite part because the color is actually called Bon Nuit, which means "Goodnight" in French.
