Isabella

We had a nice weekend with Isabella visiting us. She is getting so big. I can't believe that she is turning one in August. She is just too cute, bold at times but cute...

TWINS

Sandy and Joe had TWINS. Abby and Jackob. Congrad to them they have waited a long time for this.....................

They are just tooo cute..... I can't wait to meet them.

scary

The outside is starting to look great.The inside is looking a little scary. We still have lots of work to do on the inside but I remind myself that one month and four days ago the house was green and dirty....We are making progress. Monday and last night we got a total of 6 new windows in the house. We only have 4 left plus the outside trim around them. I am very happy with the new windows they make the house look great.

The stairs look scary but they will look great when we get them sanded down. As you can see in that picture there are drop ceilings in both bedrooms upstairs. That's not the big change upstairs we are adding a bathroom that now is presently a closet. ummm

More pictures to come..

Pictures

I love target.... I got this rocker for 32.00 the loveseat I got for 74.00 and the coffee table I got for 34.00. I also got a gathering height table the same as the coffee table but I didn't get it put together yet. It is too big for me to do on my own. I am going to put the big table in between the rocker and the loveseat. I just need to find four chairs now.

Next year I need to work on the other side of the deck becasue that side is bare as you can see in the picture, but we also want to put a roof on that side which I can't wait for....

My flower garden is really growing, I was lazy and didn't want to get my feet wet so I took a side picture... The kitchen I am still going back and forth on do I want a black table in the kitchen area to match the island or do I want a wood color table.... ummmm

Busy as a Bee

I haven't had a post in a while. Update the house is coming along. Blaze has done a great job of painting the front porch and the new vinyl railing looks awesome.

I cut the grass last night and Blaze put steel roofing on the garage.

Windows come on friday.... I am excited...

We are looking to start the inside by 8/1. I hope we can stick to that plan.

I will update the outside picture in the next two weeks or so. Once my outside list is all checked off....

Piggy

The pig roast was great. We had a beautiful day. One of the best parties that we have had. Now its back to the grind. We are hoping that we can start on the inside of the house by July 28th.

The vinyl railing looks great. With the party planning for the past week we have been slacking big time. We need to get our butt in gear, but there is always time for fireworks tonight..... and maybe pizza tooo

Flipping out

I am kind of flipping out becasue we have the pig roast on sat and I still have tons to do. I guess I will eventually get it all done. Just a little overwhelmed with it all.

We started to put the vinyl railing on the porch last night and it looks great. I am really happy with it.

I got a mirror for the flip at tjmax. Its black, distressed and big, great for the downstairs bathroom at the flip and it was 50 bucks. awesome.

We might have someone interested in buying the place already OMG we will have to keep our fingers posted on that one.

updates:

Still have to do on outside:
Steel roof on garage
vinyl railing
masonary white
white on porch
porch floor
lock on bottom of house
fix white trim on garage
touch up white paint on garage
put door handle on door of garage
landscaping
replace windows
install trim around windows

Was hoping to get this all done outside before we get our first payment from the bank. Which is in 16 days. We should be able to get it all done on the list except for the windows they aren't coming until the 16th and the landscaping, I haven't even thought about that yet. I always have a list. Now if I could only be the guys on the tv show that has the list and tells people to do the work instead of me doing the work on the list.uhhhh
