Home Sweet Home!

Our house is complete and we moved in August 8th.  Blogging had been put on hold for a while but now that we are some what settled I promise to keep posts better up-to-date.  We are enjoying the new house so much and are very happy with the way it turned out.  All the stress and hard work payed off!  We can't wait to share it with you all and looking forward to the many memories made here.  See below for pictures...

House Update

Ok, so I know it's been a while since I have posted but here are the latest pictures. They have made some great progress! They will finish the electrical work soon and early next week start the drywall. We are still working on choosing interior finishes and making lots of decisions. It can get pretty stressful at times. We hope to be moved in by early August, so mark you calendars. :)

The Latest On the House!!

It's now starting to really look like the house we envisioned!! They put in the windows this week and continue to frame the inside. Bob and I have been busy picking out stuff, some decisions are easier than others!!! We are quickly deciding on stucco and stone colors so they can get submitted for approval. Plumbing fixtures and cabinets have been decided and ordered. The "to do" list is slowly becoming shorter. I'm so looking forward to spending time on our quiet deck in the summer sun hopefully WITHOUT golf balls near!! Hope you are enjoying witnessing the progress as much as we are. Can't wait for everyone to enjoy the finished product with us!!

It's Coming Along

Sorry it's been a while since a house update but building has been going on! They have been working hard framing and it's starting to look like a house, the roof will be put on soon. Hope you enjoy the latest pictures. Hopefully weather will permit for more progress this week.

Spring Break in Mexico

We recently went on a trip to Puerto Vallarta with my family. We had a great time and enjoyed the much needed rest. We enjoyed our many days at the beach or by the pool. Here are a few pictures from the trip.

House Update

The foundation is in! They will start framing tomorrow and will be done in a couple of weeks. It's getting exciting now that it's finally starting to look like a house. Sorry it's been a while since a post we have been a little busy packing to move this week.Yes, we sold our house and are preparing to move in with my parents. Although it will be a few month before we have a house to live in we are relieved to have our's sold! Our builder told us they are "flying" on the house, I hope that's true! :)

"Breaking Ground"

On Thursday, Feburary 6th the digging started! They finished by Friday and ready for the foundation, which will be started on Monday! We went to the Colorado Home and Garden show and got many ideas to add the the tons of ideas we already had. The builder gave us a long list of homework, things to pick out, I'm feeling a little overwhelmed. One step at a time, and I promise they won't all be included on here. :)

"Before" Pictures

Tomorrow is the big day, after almost 10 months were are finally breaking ground on our new house. We wanted some pictures before the adventure begins. We took some today and are calling them the "Before Pictures". We look forward to what the future brings and hope you all enjoy sharing this special journey with us. If you are ever in the Highlands Meadow's area in Windsor stop by and see the progress first hand!

Welcome!!

So I'm new to this whole blogging thing but thought I would give it a try. I'm learning as I go, so bare with me! I will be adding info soon about our new house building adventure, so stay tuned!
