Drum Roll, Please...

It's done!!! Well, almost. The house is complete as far as construction is concerned. They are cleaning things up right now. Woo-hoo!!! I thought this day would never come, but now that it's here, I'm a little overwhelmed. It's so scary! We'll close in a little over a week! At least if all goes well with the loan - say a prayer, everyone. Rob and I went out today and put some post-it notes up around the house pointing out some problems that still need attention, but they are still finishing things up.

It was fun to go around and turn the lights on and off and run the faucets. It's amazing how something as simple as ringing the doorbell can make you so happy!

My favorite part? Our front door!! I've been waiting ever so patiently to see the color of our front door on the house... like I've said before, I'm horrible with colors and "seeing" things. But it looks fantastic!!!

Ta-da!!

Our Range and Microwave

The kitchen, minus the cardboard that has been covering the linoleum

My first goal, after putting our blinds up, is to paint the walls. I'm thinking a nice neutral color. Just something besides white. I can 't stand the white. I want to get some curtains up and warm the place up a bit. It will be so fun!!

Check out the shattered window in our back door. Yikes! But, I personally think it looks pretty cool. Too bad we can't keep it that way...

Rob and I are going to look at a dryer tomorrow at Sears, hopefully we can get a good deal! Let the fun begin!
